“ArtHoles is both informative and hilarious. Originally I was looking for 20 minute introduction to Jackson Pollock. I stumbled upon ArtHoles and ended up listening to eight or nine hour long segments. Thanks for teaching me so much and keeping a big smile on my face!”

“Irreverent, hilarious, sensitive and informative, as an established student of art history and an artist, I find Anthony’s perspective refreshing and important. He should be paid millions of dollars to make podcasts “for the rest of us” who may be put off by all the snobby academic lingo and who...”Read full review »

“Excellent storytelling, super funny, wonderful art descriptions and deep-dives. A total must listen for fans of history and art! The Caravaggio series is excellent! Please do episodes on Artemisia Gentileschi. She is SO worthy of long form and exquisite storytelling.”

“Ok I love this podcast I found it only yesterday and am already 7 episodes deep. I love art history but it does get so dry sometimes in the way it’s usually taught (like most history, actually) but the blend of comedy, educating and great storytelling in this really makes for the perfect delivery.”

“The immaculate conception does not refer to the conception of Jesus, it is actually the conception of Mary when her mother Anne became pregnant with her. Listening to Caravaggio series. New listener great pod but that fact is my pet peeve”

“Absolutely best podcast. Super well researched and informative about each artist and the context of their time and life informing their art pieces. Also the stories are kind of bonkers that really show that artists were just really talented but messy people.”

“I found this podcast in late 2023. I’m consuming the final two episodes made in 2022 as slowly as possible, because I don’t want it all to end. This art history is so thorough and well told, the mispronounced words didn’t even drive me away. I’m hoping the final podcast will have a clue for where...”Read full review »

“I have been going through the show backwards, started with Frida Kahlo, then, Caravaggio, now, Pollock. I tell my friends who know about cocaine and rhinestones, that it’s sort of like that, only for art, and instead of a person who was raised in the culture, and on the stories, told by somebody...”Read full review »
