“Humanizing History is a show about people in history that have had an impact on our
world. We will be exploring what made them important, but our main focus will be on who
that person was outside of well known records. We will be diving into who these
people were, what they hated, who they loved, and other less known information about
their lives - in order to show the world that no one is perfect, we are all human and make
mistakes, but that doesn't mean we can’t be great and have a profound impact on Tomorrow.”

Customer Reviews
Entertaining but…
They should dig a little more for accuracy.
Ignorant
These morons are very smug, and confidently present their limited knowledge of these topics in a way that will frustrate the listener. They also leave out key facts. If I could give it zero stars I would
Ignorant and Lacking Insight
I think these guys mean well, but their “biographical” coverage of Mother Teresa is about as ignorant as it is bereft of intelligent insights. These cats are clearly not Catholics, fairly irreverent towards Mother and the teachings of the Church writ large, and clearly unsophisticated and provincial gentlemen. Fellas - next time you review a saint, especially one as magnificent and mysterious as St. Teresa of Calcutta - do some more-than-superficial research into the Catholic Faith, so you’re not so embarrassingly misguided. On second thought, leave the saints alone…paradox appears to elude you. And learn how to pronounce simple terms like “convent” and “novitiate” before you go live. Mother loves you from her place in Heaven…despite your dumb dumb interpretation of her life and faith!
