Customer Reviews
Good podcast
I wish the author would continue to post. I found the history really interesting, and told in an easy to listen to way.
A Pleasure
The work put into this show by its host is evident, and is much appreciated. Compelling history presented with a sense of style…great stuff!!
Professional and Enjoyable
I only recently discovered this podcast and have been most pleasantly surprised. It is very well researched and the author does not waste time on the extraneous or the inconsequential. The presentation is logical in construction and flow, and the descriptions of events indicate that both serious research was undertaken and the author has textural and narrative skills superior to many who attempt this medium. Sound and presentation is superior as well. One of the better historical undertakings available.
