- Fun & informative
It’s cool to get a different perspective on famous historical figures. So often they are only described in the rosiest of terms. The show really looks at them from a different perspective that is probably more realistic on the impact they had.
The host is great, and the guests are amazing !!
Highly recommended.

I feel like I’ve been cheated from my true purpose in life I WANNA HOST A PODCAST TO INTELLECTUALLY DUNK ON AWFUL MEN FROM HISTORY. But seriously, this fills me with glee as a certified hater and nerd.
