Great

I am a French man living in London for over 20years and this podcast made me rediscover my country during the difficult times of COVID and lockdowns.
Full of anecdotes and detailed enough, this podcast is excellent for the novice as well as the aficionado of history.
Thank you Gary! Keep it up!
