Customer Reviews
Interesting, Informative, Endlessly Listenable
I only started listening to this podcast a few months ago and am already hooked. Edelheit is well read on the subject he covers, and shifts between the different layers of focus, from the personal account to the general overview and everything in between, with ease. This was a subject I was not as interested in before I listened to this podcast, but not any more. It's obvious from this podcast that Edelheit is very into and passionate about the subject and, unlike some other podcasts I've listened to, he manages to transfer this passion into his voice and transmit it to the listener. A brilliant first series, and a wonderful start to a podcast I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone with an interest in history.
