    So far I’m really enjoying these lessons in history. There were a few times i saw his personal thoughts/opinions shine through, but generally the information comes from a pragmatic lens and is mostly without personal interjections.

  • Very interesting but without a Timeline

    The idea to go through the countrys History backwards, mixed with not giving much dates does not work well for me, it makes everything confusing.

    That said, the Podcast is very well researched and interesting.
