    Ghengis Khan

    He had 500 wives and has 350 million descendants today! He united the mongols and conquered more land than any man on earth. He seems to be ruthless in one moment and inspired in the next. China, Mongolia, Europe, Middle East and more all had their cultures influenced by this man. He allowed freedom of religion and thus had followers from Christianity to Islam to Buddhism.

Need new mic

I can barely hear them on full blast, otherwise I would’ve given them 5 stars!

good summary

nice short bio of respectful people. But please buy a new mic. The voice is low so that I have to turn up the volume to max. On the other hand, the background music is so loud that I get surprised whenever music comes up between readings.

I REALLY want to hear you better...

Guys, I love this podcast! But please do something about the sound! I strain to hear your voices. Id love to rate it higher, but it seems to be getting worse with each episode. :(
