My favorite podcast. Samuel Biagetti is a genius and can make any historical topic fascinating. He has a wonderful sense of humour accompanying his thorough, illustrative lectures. He helps me understand both history and current events. His voice alone is very soothing so I will often pick a random topic when I start the dishes and then keep cleaning the kitchen because I can’t stop listening.

I became a patreon supporter of this podcast after hearing only a few episodes. It’s very easy to follow and compelling, detailed but never overwhelming, and Sam’s voice has a very neutral and relaxing but clear and direct cadence. Despite the title, this doesn’t have the awful smug tone of vox or NPR or similar mainstream history podcasts. It’s incessantly curious, probing, and rigorous, always quick to point out holes in the official narrative of a historical event or period without being contrarian for its own sake. The episode on Shakespeare Authorship is the single best take I’ve heard on the topic and puts scholars on both sides to shame. There are so many bad, boring, and incurious history podcasts that you have to treasure ones like this. Looking forward to listening through the archive.

By far my favorite history podcast and one of my favorite podcasts period. Sam is entertaining, insightful, thorough and thoughtful. I listen to every new pod right away and have listened to the whole archive. Highly recommend!

I’m giving a 5 star review just based on the Göbekli Tepe episode alone, which was my introductory episode to this podcast. It was laid out in a very informative and descriptive manner but was also concise and strayed from unnecessary babble. Just the facts, without hyperbole or subjective speculation. I’ve subscribed and have saved a bunch of back episodes. Looking forward to listening to those.
