“Most of the popular podcasts you listen to these days make some sort of effort to make their audio as clear and easy on the ears as possible by recording them in an appropriate space with decent microphones. Unfortunately it sound like these guys chose to record every episode in an aircraft...”Read full review »

“I’ve tried, with extensive navel-gazing and very little success, to identify exactly why this podcast has taught me more about American history than any official course I’ve taken. I think it has something to do with how engaging Mark and Malcolm are, and the caliber of guests, and the depth and...”Read full review »

“The content on this podcast is excellent and I am especially interested in the LBJ series, but the audio quality is so poor, I’ve stopped listening to it. Both commentators seem extremely well versed in American history and, as an American, I’ve enjoyed listening to the historical events from a...”Read full review »

“The 1968 show was interesting but the part about music was just not up to scratch. Random unconnected thoughts about heavy metal (???) bands breaking up and worst of all no, none, not a single reference to Motown, Atlantic and black music of that year at all! Completely disconnected mention that...”Read full review »

“Two professors from Edinburgh University offer up a wonderful and entertaining look at various subjects in American history. The podcast is not a lecture - but more of a fascinating casual conversation a couple of guys who really know their stuff.”

“Mark and Malcolm are university professors and know their stuff. These are high-level academic discussion about important topics in American political history. Take, for example, the episode on Obama and Black Americans in politics. Brilliant.”

“Searching through podcast which go into the new deal, trying to form an opinion after listening to all sides. These guys like the new deal, they tend to say the experts agree with them, yet this seems to be a purely subjective podcast with little objective evidence. The major claim is, USA...”Read full review »

“The only thing better than listening to historians talk knowledgeably and intelligently about American history, is listening to SCOTTISH DUDES talk knowledgeably and intelligently about American history.
Makes me feel guilty though.....the extent of my knowledge about Scottish history goes not...”Read full review »

“After flying through every single episode of Dan Carlin's Hardcore History, I was really hungry for more American history, which I know next to nothing about. I went through a few other podcasts but found those to jump around too much and also rely too much on reading. Each of these is an...”Read full review »
