Cold War Conversations - Podcast Rankings and reviews

i started listening to this podcast while doing research for a novel i’m writing about Soviet Russia. i was instantly captivated by the stories of everyday people who experienced firsthand the events i have researched and read about for years. i was absolutely humbled by the feeling that no matter how much knowledge i compile regarding Cold War events it can never compare to the experiences of these ordinary people who actually witnessed all the nuance of the time. i appreciate that the host allows people to tell their own story without constant interjection, but also delves deeper into the topics that interest the listener. if you have any level of interest in this period in history, definitely give Cold War Conversations a listen. i highly doubt you will be disappointed.

Everything Cold War is covered. In detail and gives a great insight into Cold War politics, equipment used and people. If you have any interest in modern history this is a must listen. Interviews with the people that where actually there. Can’t get better intelligence and knowledge than from the horses mouth

One of my favorite podcasts. Found it absolutely by chance. Last episode I listened to was about the Afghan- Soviet war. My father fought in it, he never talked about his life so listening to that episode brought me so much insight. The stories you guys tell are truly captivating. Each episode is better than the next. Thank you so much!

Cold War Conversations with Ian and his varied guests is a delight to dive into. Since finding this podcast Ive been listening to at least two episodes every day. Its an absolute pleasure hearing all the first hand accounts and experiences that are within this show. Thank you, Ian, for putting this together. To many more!
