  • I wanted to love this one. The subjects are interesting and for the 4 or 5 episodes I listened to, the questions were all very interesting. These are not questions I generally already know the answers to, so I'm intrigued. more

  • Excellent surprise

    Really like it. Had seen the podcast through an account on Twitter I follow and was looking for new history podcasts to subscribe to. I have been pleasantly surprised at how detailed the podcast is, despite being under 30 minutes. Now has become one of the podcasts I look forward to.
