History of the World podcast

In searching for prehistory content on apple podcasts, I came across Chris’s podcast. The History of the World Podcast is Awesome! I started at the beginning, and am now through all of Volume 1. I have thoroughly enjoyed it. Chris is a great narrator - very informative and engaging. He uses a lot of common sense in reviewing prehistorical periods, but is careful to point out areas of scientific disagreement or controvercy. I highly recommend Volume 1, and am looking forward to ancient and classical civilization up next!

Chris, I long wished to go back and study ancient works history of my high school days, when I stumbled across your podcast about 2-3 years ago. I generally listen during my commute. Everything is wonderful about the podcast. You do such a thorough and fabulous job of guiding the listener through this absolutely massive subject! I recently finished the profile set on Julius Cesar. All such interesting stuff. And your job is only going to get bigger as we come into more modern times and there is more material and more to cover! This is a enormous project you’ve set before yourself. I’m a little late in coming to the poll, but like the battle sounds and voice of God features. I also like how you give geographical references to modern cities. This is especially important if one is listening from the car so we can later go and look at a map. I also love when you provide reference to ancient origins of modern day words/phrases/monuments, etc. Also super love the interspersed of focus podcasts, eg Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, Medicine in the Prehistoric World, etc. And I want to highlight appreciation for covering often lesser highlighted cultures such as South American prehistory, Asian, African, etc. Keep up the great work. We really appreciate you and the effort it takes to produce such a quality work of this size. Hats off to you

I’m on volume 2, episode 17 and can’t step away. Thanks for this excellent body of work! I’m a huge fan of Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History - he digs into ancient & modern history really deeply. His latest is a 4-hour part 1 in the life & times of Alexander the Great. He’s not a prehistory guy, though, and that’s what led me to you. I’m learning so much & enjoying every minute. 😊💕 Julie in Pennsylvania USA

Wonderful podcast, which takes us step-by-step through the journey of humanity on this earth. I have enjoyed it for years, been a member of his Patreon and was sure that I had already left review before. I guess I forgot that. Happy to rectify it and help support wherever possible. Also on a recent podcast, you were trying to figure out what you were going to name the next section. I like the term global world instead of trying to do the gunpowder world or something else. After leaving the medieval age, the world becomes more interconnected and global in nature.
