Customer Reviews
A fascinating podcast, superbly presented.
Recommended to people who like history.
Podcasts in general
I got involved in podcasts when my eyesight was failing and was unable to read for any length of time. I was a lucky person as surgery was able to sort me out. However your podcast was the first one that engaged me and subsequently many others I have listened too. When you are dealing with subjects that provide you with bits and pieces of historical information it requires a certain degree of impartiality. What I particularly like about what you do is ability to explain your ambiguity but still suggest underneath what you reckon is what might be the answer Jimslip(k)not
Mighty Good
Love this podcast so far (I’m only 35 episodes deep) but so far it is great not only discussing the obvious point of the podcast but also exploring the history, political and social, need and geography of the main topic its a big 5 from me matey!
