“I have a short attention span yet, listen to this podcast for hours at a time. Elliot brings life to every story. The WW2 episodes are my favorite, but they’re are all worth listening to. These heroes should not be forgotten. Great job!”

“He tells well-researched and deeply human stories that bring the historical figures and the people around them to life in an authentic way. His narration is both objective and culturally sensitive. I appreciate that I don’t detect some of the intellectual pitfalls of many Western historians...”Read full review »

“Eliot is a master story teller, who’s passion for history grabs your attention from start to finish. Whether or not you like history or a particular podcast subject is irrelevant. Once you start listening to a heroic tale told by Eliot Gates, you’ll be hooked.”

“In a crowded history podcast market Anthology of Heroes manages to have a distinct voice and style. It’s always illuminating, funny and just the right length. So many podcasts love the sound of their own voice and drone on but AoH never out stays its welcome. Highly recommended…👌”
