Other then that , find it well done and interesting. Although slightly biased toward the union point of view. That can be expected this day and age.

If only this podcast didn’t spend so much time talking about everything other than the civil war. Get to it!

Why oh why have the background music blaring over the narrative ? I made it a few minutes in and turned it off. Not even sure if the content is good because who can tolerate this?

Just read another review, with above title, and what a disturbing take. Yes, their is an inherent bias towards “the Union side these days” because that was and remains the United States of America and the position of equality and freedom. Which of those 3 do you not support, “Cleve55”?
