The narrator’s style is highly annoying and sounds like a kindergarten teacher What a shame

This podcast is great for those of us who did not grow up in Australia and so missed out on the school lectures and lessons.

Of things and people who lived hundreds of years ago Also too much voice ”acting” which certainly makes sure we know the podcaster’s opinion on the issue

Every episode of this podcast is well researched and well executed! I also love the topics. Australian history is quite unique and diverse, I appreciate the different topics from different eras and parts of this great country.

I’ve been slowly working my way through this podcast episode by episode. I’ve learnt a lot. I doubt anyone can listen to this series and not learn something.

This is one of my top 3 favorite podcasts. Each show is thoroughly researched, and the presenters voice is soothing, making it a great podcast to listen to at bedtime. I'd love to hear the history of Far North Queensland, and the Palmer River Gold rush in the future :)Read full review »

Love this podcast. And, as usual, the latest episode was engrossing, informative and fun! Can’t wait to hear what happens next in Buckley’s introduction into the indigenous community.

Great podcast. I’m enjoying the back catalogue and re-learning a bit of long forgotten history. Great stuff. Love your work. Obviously 5 stars. Who’s the clownshow that rated it 1? Is there a podcast examining the deranged mindset of a person who rates a pretty genuine, independent podcast like...Read full review »

I thought I knew about Australian history but realised there was lots I didn’t know. The Eureka Stockade - more than I learned at school and the Kelly gang - much bigger events and quite different from a lot of my memories. Love to listen to in bed and then have to backtrack the next to hear...Read full review »

Well presented and researched. We need more people to know about Australian history, the good and bad.
TimPepp via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/30/21
Going on long driving trip this podcast is awesome! I learned so much about Australian histories. I would love a podcast every 2 weeks like it was though but I’m probably asking too much.

Jenny does a fantastic job of delving into Australian history and is absolutely meticulous with her research, cannot even imagine the hours that must go into the prep.

While watching a television program set in Australia I realized my typical American education taught my very little about Australian history. This podcast does a great job of filling in some of those gaps in a way that is both super informative and very entertaining. I’m really enjoying it!

I work onboard a large 200ft yacht and spend a lot of time underway on watch and standing on passerelle duty and these podcasts have helped pass numerous hours.

I’ve found this podcast to be very informative and well researched, I think it’s important to learn about my adopted home as a new Australian.

Presented in a soft, laid back style, this is proper well researched history but told as a melodic story. The people are brought to life and the series on Ned Kelly are simply fantastic. Do yourself a favour and subscribe then enjoy hours of pleasure with gentle humour from a lovely host.

Being an immigrant from China I didn’t have much knowledge of Australia. The Kelly story is so intriguing, I did my Ned Kelly tour and referred to many website and movies! Look forward to more stories. Thank you so much!
