The History Hour - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I’ve always loved history and really enjoy this podcast. He does an excellent job telling the story in a way that keeps the listener interested while giving facts and explaining how these stories could have come out of the time period in question. I learn something new every episode. Would definitely recommend!

This podcast is excellent, interesting, and informative, but it is also easy and fun to listen to. It highlights both major and little-known historical events. I appreciate that it investigates women’s history, disability history, and gay history. One of the best podcasts out there, highly recommended.

What I appreciate most about this history podcast is the fact that you somehow find original sources who were actually there or family members who were directly impacted by the events covered. Thank you for the carefully researched presentations. I know it can feel like thankless work but it is absolutely treasured by many of us.

A really great way to learn about historical events in greater depth. I’ve lived in both the UK and US and have a surface knowledge of many of the topics, but this podcast always goes deeper and helps me understand what led up to the events. Keep up the good work!

I’m unfortunately unsubscribing to this podcast. It has a lot of interesting content but with the recent release of the episode involving Judge Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill that I realized this podcast has a definite political lean to the left. By not including the Judge’s side of the story nor all the facts against Anita Hill, they are showing they only care about one side of the coin of history. It’s unfortunate, but I like having both sides of the story not just the one you agree with.
