Excellent Pod

I listened to the RFK jr. episodes. Research is very impressive. The main podcaster, I guess Robert? is very good. His delivery is smooth and natural. But what is it with the other people? They do not contribute to the story at all, just make almost incoherent asides and interruptions. The other...Read full review »

This podcast is so well researched and the figures covered are so interesting. Here are my good-hearted critiques—Robert, please stop saying ‘Right?’ after so many statements and please don’t interrupt/speak over your guests so much!!

While the subject matter is interesting the research is light & dumbed down. Lame humour, not like Last Podcast On The Left which is really engaging & incredibly funny. The host on this podcast has no personality & guests talk over themselves - no mike muting from editing. Shame,...Read full review »

Fascinating topics and great history lessons and perspectives. Been listening for years and will continue to do so for as long as it lasts.

Unfortunately, this very informative show is paid for by IHeart- a purveyor of right wing misinformation. IHeart aka clear channel produce such lovelies as Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelley, Mark Levin… sorry but I can’t listen to his show. IHeart helped to elect Trump!

Hosts have no capacity for self critique of left wing darlings like Che Guevara, Mao, any of the weather underground that terrorized America, etc. They have an axe to grind and it’s sad to see because the concept is great just poorly executed.

It’s basically just this male podcaster interrupting and talking over or undermining his female cohost. This was extra interesting considering I was listening to the toxic masculinity episode. Bummer.

Robert Evans is a truly awesome podcaster. He introduces us to some many other awesome other folks that are great to listen to as well. He is so thorough and well read. Love this podcast. My dream is to be a guest on his show some day!

Men
The episodes about the history of masculinity in the USA, OMG! What. The. —- is up with some men? I mean, some guys are SO insecure! And then, the way they treat women because of their self-perception as inadequate is insane. Y’all want to be masculine? GET OVER IT and just be. Try and find...Read full review »

I think as an American living in Illinois, I’m listening to all the problems in Utah and all the cases there is a problem with Utah and it’s showing up right now with all the podcasts and everything that is going on with murder cases, rape cases quite frankly, I am sick of Mormons and their whole...Read full review »

I’m getting ads for Trump watches.

I’ve never seen anybody do more work for a free podcast. The amount of research, scholarship, and analysis this guy puts into every episode is worthy of academia. He’s brilliant and gives a gift to the world twice a week. But you know…work on those pronunciations man. It’s triggering.
Scottford2326 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/27/24
Ooooooh my god I love you guys for this. They deserve to me mocked. Excellent work, good job. Ha
Cristibouboo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/26/24
I’m a liberal that is very disenfranchised by “liberals” like this. Woke liberals calling farmers ignorant. They keep talking about the facist governor as if he is a republican. There was a time when the Democratic Party sucked and it’s taken a dark turn in recent time with no one paying...Read full review »

Depressing history and horrible people covered in an amusing way. History people should be listening to. Robert and his guests always work to provide correct information with humor. I don't like the episodes with Matt and his soundboard, but they are just a fraction so I just skip those and 5...Read full review »

Okay, I believe Yarvin has some dangerous ideas. However, you can make points against people you disagree with without totally distorting their positions. Either out of a lack of research, or a biased reading, you have misrepresentedCurtis Yarvin’s key ideas. I have been reading him closely for...Read full review »
Reflect101 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/22/24
Love the show - however, as a Black American, I sometimes find there to be a bit too much laughter when talking about the history of physical and systematic violence against subjugated peoples. It seems more humor points than historical ones, where the lives mentioned are brought up to get laughs...Read full review »

This is a must-subscribe. This is one of my favourite podcasts since their first episode
cappuccinoalmcocovegan1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/20/24
Will Robert ever let a female guest speak without interrupting or correcting her? Time will tell.
sultrykestrel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/18/24
The right wingers complaining in the reviews section are wrong per usual, this is a great show
Mike Oxardd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/15/24
The idea of this show is phenomenal. But it’s ruined by the constant political ideology by the hosts, particularly left-leaning ideology. That with the pretentiousness of how they incorporate their ideologies makes the podcast unlistenable. Remove the politics and I’ll be back.
Turdfacekilla via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/12/24
Candrim77 needs to be told they don’t speak for everyone.
Falling Short via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/09/24
The concept is great, the host is great and the show is great. The only problem is that the guests are hit or miss and can really wreck an episode. Some of the guests feel the need to insert their jokes at every turn which can be unnecessary and some just constantly go off on tangents making it...Read full review »

Robert is a great host and very funny. Prop and Jamie Loftus are the best guest hosts. They having amazing chemistry with Robert. The only drawback to the show is Sophie, who is the antithesis of fun and the human equivalent of a wet blanket. Can we have 100% less of Sophie?
CarDriver4238 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/06/24
Feels like a teacher and children talking around in a circle in the classroom, all trying to be polite, and laugh at everybody’s bad jokes. No critical thinking skills. What so ever. Like, literally zero.
keikokomikokoi via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/04/24
Thank you, Prop, I feel seen. 😆❤️ Love this pod.
Mixed2032 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/04/24
As an American expat, Robert’s sense of humor is a source of tremendous glee. The ripest sort of education—and where are the baddies came from is crucially relevant to being a responsible citizen. The only thing I don’t like about this podcast is Sophie’s commentary, which always lowers the...Read full review »

Please double check pronunciations of names and towns. It’s more professional and very IMPORTANT to get it correct when trying to explain/teach history to people. Im on the verge of not being able to listen anymore because it’s so annoying
bbFAN28 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/01/24
Please stop saying right after every other sentence. I love the topics and discussion but can’t listen to it anymore.
Nhansard via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/26/24
This guest on the episode about wilderness camps needs to be told that we aren’t interested in her life story. Robert and Sophie are great.
candrim77 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/24/24
This is one of the best podcasts out there. I’ve listened to several episodes now and am hooked. I just finished part 2 of Curtis Yarvin — very timely.
Beth196119791984 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/24/24
Thank you for the puns, I swear I just laughed out loud! You are fantastic at making horrible things and horrible people funny! Well done.
heatherbc911 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/23/24
Lots of good info on stuff that history class never covered or glossed over. Especially liked the L. Ron Hubbard episodes. My grandparents moved to Dunedin in the early 80s so we saw the emotionless people walking around their areas there and Clearwater when we visited. Explains a lot.
Glorious Ham via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/22/24
You guys got me with the Kissinger miniseries and ive been hooked ever since. There’s a limitless supply of historical & present day bastards that I reckon this show will never end. And I am here for it! Also Sophie rules. The dullards who post reviews whining about her are people who...Read full review »

Good research/interesting info, bad presentation. The constant interjections where they relate pop culture to the history they’re discussing quickly becomes insufferable.
Skunktooth1! via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/19/24
I’m a long time fan of Robert and Sophie’s work always interesting, funny, and well researched. It may recency bias but the Curtis Yarvin episodes are particularly brilliant. I understand Robert’s hesitancy in giving this guys toxic views too much oxygen, that said it’s important to be aware of...Read full review »
excharger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/24
The host uses the word “right?” so frequently that it renders this otherwise smart and well written podcast 100% unlistenable. Get this guy an editor or have him commit to stop using filler words and I would love to come back.
Rhymes with Snoozin’ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/18/24
I like the show but the latest episode I heard has ads for predatory gold-selling companies. The kind intended to fool right-wing grandmas and grandpas that the economy is about to collapse (free Ronald Reagan coin if you call now!) It’s gross.
denny dangus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/17/24
When someone cuts these down to where it’s just information and not chatter with bits of info I will listen. It’s just too much for me to wait for hosts to get to the point.
CapitalClyde via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/15/24
Would give five stars if the amount of ads were cut in half
tinydogtinyhat via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/15/24
I really enjoy this show, and I learn so much every time. I just listened to the anti-vagrancy episode and Robert mentioned my favorite movie, Hot Fuzz, and I was so excited I had to leave a review. They’re really doing the most for the greater good….. the greater good.

your podcast is in english fool ang thats great sont use android devices By the way are you taking money from Scientologist in Los Angeles?

My sister showed me this podcast (Kissinger episode) and we bonded over it and that was the sole reason I got interested in politics.
Forrest the salter via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/07/24
I like the host as he seems to do the background work needed for the discussion. But he lets his strong leftist views seep into the story, which ruins the podcast. If the host would just stick to the story that is enough to prove his point. No need to bash on conservatives or those that don’t...Read full review »
RobBird08 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/07/24
I like this podcast. It’s interesting, informative and amusing. My criticism is that it is let down by sub-standard co-hosts/guests. They often have no knowledge of the subject matter, they try (and fail) to be amusing. Clear them out, or replace with informed guests and it’s 5 stars all the way....Read full review »
