Engaging
I love this podcast, it’s so fun!! Can’t wait for more episodes!
Meant for a history lover who is also just a girl!
I stumbled upon this podcast by accident and it’s now one of my favorites that I now recommend to all my history lover friends and coworkers. Every single episode is so fun and touches on so many different parts of time in history. (Something I love). I learn something knew every episode, and even some things that stick with me every day. (Kellogg cereal) (IYKYK) I can’t wait for all the future episodes!!!
Love it!!
This podcast is hilarious and a great way to get the tea on history. Happy to say that proud mamma, Deb, turned me into this channel!
