Real Laughs Here!

Given that some comedies leave us simply smiling, or nodding our head, it’s nice to hear that Simon Kennedy remembers that comedy is meant to make one open their mouth, and have laughter emanate from within!
His take on history is playful, and indeed, very funny!

Funny and clever

If you’re looking for a funny and light-hearted podcast this is for you. Thoroughly entertaining and intelligent with historical references, this podcast is very clever. I’m a subscriber.
