History, Bitches!

I love the content and personalization of the episodes but often completely miss what they are saying due to the low volume and background noises occasionally.

Honestly couldn't stand them. Their presentation and some of the rhetoric is like they are trying too hard for content instead of relying on the facts from the interesting subject matters. Some of the their interjections seem a little ignorant for “historians”. Like others said a lot of unnecessary cussing. A lot of conclusions being drawn. They are cringy. One girl really draws out her words and it’s obnoxious.

I’m a huge fan of history, particularly women’s history. I loved the name of this podcast so I gave it a shot. First off, if you’re not a fan of cursing, you’ll want to pass. I have days when I drop some f-bombs but it doesn’t figure into every other sentence out of my mouth. You can have fun and curse, but you got to keep it classy. Otherwise, it’s distracting. Speaking of distracting, I am not a huge fan of Brittany’s voice. I know those sorts of things can’t be helped but the pitch and cadence along with the accent was difficult to deal with. I try not to rate podcasts on that because we all have unique voices and that shouldn’t keep us from educating people on topics we are passionate about. I do think a bit more editing and playing around with the playback would do wonders. There were so many “Um”s that it broke my concentration. Overall, this podcast is a good attempt. It seemed to be researched well if not a bit one sided. A bit more polishing should put this one in good stead.

This podcast delivers on its title in the best way, mixing a lot of attitude and humor with much higher quality historical research than other podcasts of this type.
