I found this podcast as I was looking for more information on the indigenous people of the US after watching 1883, part of the Yellowstone series. As I’m in the U.K. I didn’t learn about it at school. The podcast has many episodes that cover what I was looking for, but as they are so well researched and detailed I’ve started listening to other ones too.

Key themes from listener reviews, highlighting what works and what could be improved about the show.
