Dylan_Rodrigues ,

A stellar podcast!

Did you listen to Mike Duncan's series on the American Revolution and wish it was a bit more in depth? Did you listen to American Military History podcast and wish it had some political background and information on the personal lives of the individual players? Do you just want to know more about the American Revolution, in a fun and entertaining way? Well, this is the podcast for you!

Host Michael Troy mixes the right amount of information and humour in his show. All episodes are around 20 mins so they don't take a lot of time but you'd be surprised how much you learn from each of them. I simply cannot recommend this podcast enough!
