United Kingdoma month ago - Low quality
Low quality of sound, as it’s very hard to listen to it. It’s dull as well! I was trying to get more interesting history about “David” but did not last. It’s so bad.

United States3 years ago - What it says on the tin
This really does give the feel of waking up in a different era. Every episode I’ve heard has been enthralling. I must just mention Felipe Fernandez Armesto who talked about history interrogating the dead. This is the fascination! Must just say that his accent is so similar to Bojo that I almost had a nasty shock. Did they go to the same school?
Apple Podcasts5CarolinecaribooUnited Kingdom3 years ago - One of the best history podcasts
A podcast that is not scared to go beyond 30 minutes, we don’t all have the attention span of goldfish like Dan Snows outfit think. A good podcast and informative. I’ve not spotted that many inaccuracies. Always find it weird that 99% of podcasts are based on people with books to flog. Surely people are out there with a story to tell who haven’t just published a book on the subject.
