History of the Germans - Trailer

Hello and welcome to the History of the Germans Podcast, the podcast that does exactly what it says on the tin. What you get here is a narrative history of the German people from the early Middle Ages to German Reunification in 1991 in 20-30 minute, episodes coming out every Thursday. Why would you want to come along to this journey? Can German history reach places, other histories cannot? Answers to these and other question in this 7 minute trailer The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0. As always: Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.com If you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans Podcast Facebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcast Bluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.social Instagram: history_of_the_germans Twitter: @germanshistory To make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts. they have the exact same episodes as in the History of the Germans, but they may be a helpful device for those who want to concentrate on only one season. So far I have: The Ottonians Salian Emperors and Investiture Controversy Fredrick Barbarossa and Early Hohenstaufen Frederick II Stupor Mundi Saxony and Eastward Expansion The Hanseatic League The Teutonic Knights The Holy Roman Empire 1250-1356 The Reformation before the Reformation

Fantastic Podcast!

I married into a family with vast German heritage, and love the country intensely. We visit from the US every summer. It’s quite difficult to find a comprehensive resource like this that is so accessible and entertaining, with just the right level of detail. Commercial-free is an added bonus. The deadpan humor kills me sometimes. I even love the occasional quirky pronunciations of English words (e.g. scarce rhyming with sparse, or pronouncing the H in honorific.). Makes it more authentic. 10 stars!
Well told stories from primary chronicles

I have never binge listened to podcasts until this one. These are stories and characters I knew a bit about in my studies of central European history, but the depth comes from someone who has done his research and is well-read in the primary sources of chroniclers of the time. I really appreciate the breezy style and wit these tales are told. I’m transported back several decades to my favorite undergraduate professor of European history, who was also German and had the same dry wit.
Easily my favorite podcast

Fantastically done! So much to be learned about not just German history, but the whole how and why of much of Europe. The show is exquisitely researched and well paced, always kept interesting. The German humor continues to catch me off guard and always keeps me coming back. I restarted from episode 1 and, now that I am caught up, Thursday is my new favorite weekday - I’ll be listening in all the way to 1989!

This is great! I love your deadpan humor. Also, I do love that Bach!
