The History Show

I’ve been listening to this gem of a show for years. The show focuses on Irish history and the stories of Irish people both at home and abroad, but does a wonderful job showing the connections to European, American, and world history. As an American, I was surprised by how interesting and relevant these stories are to me. Myles and team always bring fascinating stories to the table, covering both large historical events but also personal, local, and little known stories. Always intriguing and high quality.

I just love this podcast. Stories are detailed. Information is fresh. As an American the stories I hear a different history than I have been used to learning. Myles is a great host. He is always engaging

There are only so many stories about the war of independence and the civil war that continue to be interesting. This show was my gi- to show for ages and now it’s become samey and even ho-hum. Let’s move swiftly along. I do like Myles but time to update and upgrade the content please.

One of my favorite history podcasts. Miles and team always deliver with varied, interesting, and relevant stories that shed a new light on modern Irish and world history. Each episode is entertaining and unique, and I have found them to be largely focused on the experience of individuals and communities, which I find to be captivating listening.
