Not clear

Just to reiterate another review, it’s very unclear when to expect episodes and when new episodes are available. Otherwise it would be 5 star program. I just expect more clarity when paying for a podcast.

Really enjoyed what I could listen to. Two never played despite several attempts to listen.

BBC History brings to the table a superb podcast with a diverse array of topics. While it may lean a little heavy on British history topics from time to time, this isn’t surprising given the publisher, but the service still offers a pretty wide ranging selection of topics in European, American, and world history. The podcast involves interviews with renown historians often plugging the latest research. The interviews are pretty neat, especially the “Everything You Need to Know About…” episodes where they take straight-to-the-point Q&A’s from online askers. Some topics even have multiple episode mini-series and the podcast app itself also breaks down their archives into subtopics which is pretty convenient and immersive. Great academic discussions supported with an organized and efficient app provide an excellent podcast service!
Confusion

I absolutely love this podcast but since signing up for Plus I’ve been confused about a few points. Do I keep two icons on my Apple app? Will I only get weekly updates on Plus? Will the daily podcasts be ad free?
