“A very interesting and intelligent History-based show, connecting the dots of History, Coffee, Revolutions, Conquests, Human Suffering…, I don’t know what else, yet. Not for the coffee afficionato with a weak stomach, for the ghastly background of coffee’s history, and colonialism. I almost gave...”Read full review »

“Once you filter out all the left wing, woke, anti-capitalist nonsense that the producers felt the need to include, there’s a fascinating history behind to be learnt about coffee. The book’s author, on which the podcast is based, is captivating. His cohost, however, is a nauseating Guardianista type.”

Was mir besonders gefällt, ist das ich viele andere Sachen erfahren habe, die nicht nur mit Kaffegeschichte verbunden sind.
Das Ganze ist auch gut für die Hörer geeignet, die nicht unbedingt Muttersprachler des Englischen sind.”
