Why Change a Good Thing

“I’m a long time listener, and I used to LOVE this podcast. One day, I turn on the latest episode and hear that things are changing, some new folks coming on, and I take it with stride giving my then fave pod the benefit of the doubt. I’m sad to say the entire tone of the podcast has ultimately changed dramatically to nearly every single episode now being nauseatingly preachy, and look, I get it. There’s no arguing against it. HOWEVER, that doesn’t mean that every.single.episode. needs to sound preachy and eventually alienating. What happened to dozens of episodes you’ve done in the past where the dark corners of history were covered extremely well while also not becoming absurdly repetitive. The evidence should be clear - look at how many 1-2 star reviews there now are and read the reasons why. There are a lot of other sides of history that can be covered alongside the topics of the post-original crew’s episodes. But if this is the path you want to take, you should change the name of the podcast altogether because there is to cover in America’s “backstory” than solely social justice issues.”

“I've been listening to these guys for a few years now in the various permutations of this podcast. They are always informative without being pedantic, and entertaining without being condescending. They are not just the best history podcasts, they are one of the best podcasts - period.”Read full review »

“This show has done a great job of offering concise overviews of the history of what many think are "modern" topics, but in reality are issues that have been around for hundreds of years. Excellent research and a nice balance of historical information with entertaining anecdotes.”Read full review »
