Hilarious and riveting ancient history
I absolutely love this history podcast and can’t recommend it enough. Hosts Jen and Jenny deliver fascinating real stories and myths from across a wide spectrum of ancient histories - they manage to be hilarious, informative, casual and at the same time delivering super well researched information about some totally fascinating, brutal and sometimes bizarre times. Like Dan Carlin, they examine history through a contemporary lense, viewing historical figures as the (often terrible) and always imperfect humans they really are and not through any kind of rose coloured glasses or stuffy, reverent classical nostalgia. I love their banter, laughter and obsession with certain characters - listening to them has made discovering ancient history a pleasure for me, and I can listen to their epic podcasts for hours. Thanks so much pls keep it up.

I can't even begin to explain how entertaining these two are. History is always made better when education mixes with whimsical conversation. Jenny and Genn give a whole new take on discussing ancient history, filled with humour, cleverness, and wit.Read full review »

Just finished the Hadrian’s Wall episode and had to write a review. Most of the episodes fill gaps in topics I thought I knew a lot about. It’s a must listen if your a history buff. I will be getting on their Patreon as well. Ginger solidarity

This was the podcast that got me hooked. Thank you a thousand times over for keeping me sane during the dark early days of the pandemic.
