I am spending 9 months traveling throughout SEA and I have very limited knowledge about the history of this region. That doesn’t work for me so I searched for a podcast to help resolve that deficiency and I came across this History of Southeast Asia podcast. Right before I visit a different country and while I’m there I simply search the archives for all episodes pertaining to that country. This podcast has been great and extremely informative and helpful in helping me to connect to each country’s history and culture. I have been recommending it to other people as I travel around the region. My only criticism is that he kinda sounds like AI in his delivery. As I write this I have already visited Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam and Singapore. So I’m looking forward to hearing all about Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, The Philippines and Taiwan. And if you’re reading this maybe drop me an episode about Hong Kong. 😉
