United States3 months ago - Best history podcast I’ve ever listened to
This is the best history podcast I’ve ever listened to! Alli’s explanations are extremely clear. Her focus on key concepts and a narrative overview is perfect for listeners who want to build a more complete picture of the world. The episodes are engaging and easy to understand, but are also filled with depth and nuance. The listener is left with a solid framework of the world to use as context for current events, travel, or a deeper dive into history and culture.
