In Our Time: History - Podcast Rankings and reviews

It’s hard to absorb information when the host interrupts the guests so often! He asks questions in a snarky way, then talks over the guests as they attempt an answer.
I had to turn it off. Too bad. It seems like the guests had a lot of info to offer if the host would get out of the way.

The questions asked and topics chosen are brilliant, the guests are wonderful. The only problem is the host won’t let them answer a question. Just when the guest begins a fascinating answer, he interrupts with another question. Very frustrating! This would be one of my favorite podcasts were it not for that.

There are great guests on the show, very knowledgeable and content is top quality. However, I took a star away because the moderator Bragg’s manner comes across as rather brusque at times. I realise his role is to guide and probe the speakers, to come to the point in the shortest time, but he lacks a softer touch, zero humour, and seems a little too intense.

The host herds his knowledgeable scholars through fascinating histories of people and events. A must!

Incredibly intelligent guests and wonderful information, but borderline unlistenable due to the host’s rude interruptions which throw these smart people off their thoughts and audibly confuses them. Not to mention the host mumbles horribly and is extremely hard to understand when he inevitably inserts himself.

Very informative with excellent guest contributors. However couldn't get through one whole episode because the host is so arrogant and rude. He interrupts constantly and refuses to distribute anything valuable himself. When one of the guests tried to hear his thoughts on something because he knew the host had relevant experience in the topic, he rudely refused to contribute to the conversation and changed the topic. Unfortunate because the podcast seems rather informative
