“I was hunting around for a podcast to listen to while I worked the graveyard shift at my job, and I stumbled upon 1865 purely accidentally. I immediately fell in LOVE- I’ve always been extremely interested in the Civil War and Reconstruction and this podcast has sent me into yet another 19th century spiral (in the best way!).
Everything about this podcast is brilliantly executed- the voice acting, the script, the pacing, and the music are all perfect. The “behind the episode” episodes are so informative and allow me to savor and contextualize the media I just listened to.
I just finished season two (I had been procrastinating listening to episode 10 bc I literally couldn’t stand the idea of not having anymore episodes to binge) and I am especially thrilled that Season 2 featured U.S. Grant. I’m biased because I have a soft spot for Grant, but it was phenomenal to witness such a thoughtful depiction of an often misinterpreted historical figure. James Black did a particularly beautiful job voicing Grant, but I also hope that Grant’s whiskey bottle was also a paid actor bc the sound effects were superb as well.
I apologize for the rambling review, but this series redefined the boundaries of what I believed podcasts can accomplish and I will certainly be re-listening to the entire series on a loop until the hopeful release of season 3. Thank you so much for creating such a powerful and eloquent piece of media!”

“I have to give this. 5 star based on the story itself. Hopefully u didn’t let ur political bias dictate a lot of what u had to add to the story because I can just picture this going down like u have described. Can you just imagine how much better off The freedman would have been if Lincoln was...”Read full review »
