Customer Reviews
Württemberg is okay by me
Hi Matt. Been following your show for a while and I just want you to know that your deep dives into the global and strategic context is what sets your pod apart from others. The War of the Spanish Succession is a case in point. So Baden-Württemberg is ok by me. Brad
Piratical pleasure
Sit in a sea shanty with a rum and pop this podcast on while ye remember the ole buccaneering days. Seriously fun and such a thorough and entertaining walk through the swashbuckling past. It’s story time, with pirates! What’s not to love.
Awesome
The best podcast I have ever listened to.
Very informative and factual very well thought out and told with great enthusiasm in a fun and exciting way.
I have learned so much about political and pirate history and it has been a real eye opener.
Thank you so much Matt.👍👍
