Though sometimes the message and story presented is difficult to hear, I haven’t heard something from Grim and Mild that I dislike. Well researched. Well written. Grim and Mild presents history’s stories that should not be forgotten because we need the lessons they provide. I highly recommend this show, American Shadows, and Noble Blood.
Love ALL His Podcasts!

OK I absolutely love his shows, but I feel like Robin Minter on her parts of the show. She mostly talks about like politics and other kind of stuff like that and it’s always a bit of a stretch can to connect it to the episode like for example when they did the episode on lobotomies, she went straight into something entirely else it was just, yeah. Otherwise love love love love love shows
Kinda felt really biased

It sounded like a cool show but it really is at the heart of it hating on white people. Another thing is in the Wild West Gender episode where Aaron is talking about this native dude and his place in society, at first he explains that the native was referred to by she her pronouns and he him pronouns and that the Spanish were confused by this, but then Aaron Menke proceeds to put our understanding of gender on something that is not our culture and that even the historian said that’s not what that is. So I don’t think I really enjoyed the show. I liked Lore but I did not enjoy this one with the very blatant disregard of white people and then they judging of someone else’s gender that you did not personally know and then place your cultures expectations of gender on their cultures expectations of gender. I preferred it when the shows were unbiased, and not leaning on entirely one isle of the politics in history whenever everyone has done something bad.
