The Ancient World - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Love this podcast. Listening to episodes every day. Scott is a great storyteller - funny, compelling, and provides details to humanize the historical figures and help you see the big picture. Highly recommended.

I’ve listened to the series multiple times. Scott is absolutely the best story teller. Compelling, engrossing. I’ve learned so much. I started listening at night in order to fall asleep because I find Scott’s voice soothing. Well forget about falling asleep! It’s too exciting. And the humor. Please Scott keep the episodes coming. You are the best!!! Thank you!!!

I am a new listener and have a new found fascination with ancient human civilization. I am truly enjoying the podcast as I am learning so much, and I appreciate that I can follow without an extensive background knowledge. I like how we are getting such a vast overview of the ancient world which helps connect like pieces of a puzzle.

I’m almost finished with the bloodline series Chris did, and I’m learning more about the African and Eastern civilizations than I’ve ever known. This series is bringing the historical players to life for me.
The first series of true Bronze Age civilization which is not as historically documented, sadly made it less intimate. But it was a good review of current ideas on the timeframe.
The Rediscovery series was fun to listen to and it shocked and amused me with the beginnings of modern archeology.
Other than the sound quality, I think it’s a great way to learn both ancient history and classical.
Keep up the good work Chris, and thank you for your extensive efforts to provide a great podcast.
