The History of the Twentieth Century

This is such a wonderful show and I rate it better than most other history podcasts out there. Amazing in its breadth and depth of research. Mark highlights so many unknown aspects of the history of this period that makes the show so very interesting. This has got me through so many long drives and workouts (!). Love it. Thank you Mark!

This is such a good podcast. Currently only in 1905 but it is so comprehensive and well done. It is not boring-it’s addictive!!! Soon I’ll finally figure out why world war 1 happened!

My favorite history podcast since the first episode. Insightful, entertaining and presented in a manner that has always left me anxious for the next episode. Mr Painter unlike some creators has stuck to a schedule over the years and provided all episodes advertising free. Episode one still has relevance today.

Update: I long ago ran out of episodes, and now eagerly await new episodes each week. This is a tremendously well done podcast that any history enthusiast would benefit from listening to. Informative without being dry. Entertaining without being cheeky. I find myself learning things I never knew, as well as greater understanding of topics I thought I was well versed in. I have been listening almost every day and dread the day where I will run out of episodes I haven’t heard . I started when I needed a World war I podcast, then discovered there were many episodes having preceded the WWI episodes that are just as, if not more interesting than the actual conflict itself. KEEP MAKING EPISODES!
