“I stumbled upon this podcast while looking for episodes on brutalism and the space race back in November.
Having studied modern history in school, and also having a interest in aircraft from the Cold War era, in addition to a love of Berlin I began to pick other episodes, and became well and truly hooked.
From a critics perspective this podcast uses a lot of primary sourcing, which I find uniquely engaging. The different viewpoints aren’t always what you would expect and overall there is a focus on the human aspect of the era, which makes many anecdotes relatable to the listener so you are able to gain a level of understanding harder to achieve from history books (at least from my poorly read point of view)
It has also significantly increased the pile of books I want/have bought but haven’t read yet.
All in all, I’ve not listened or subscribed to many podcasts, but as of this year I am supporting this one as it has a large historical value that swells as more episodes are released, and as such I see this as somewhat more worthwhile than others for that reason alone. What keeps me interested is Ian’s engaging and erudite manner and delivery and as such I will be keeping up to date. The more people that do this the more this will develop!
Keep up the good work!”

“This podcast will be interesting for anyone with an interest in modern history. The interviews are very well-conducted and reveal sides of the Cold War that are usually missed in standard textbooks. Give it a listen!”

“I’m really enjoying these podcasts as I’ve been interested in the subject since childhood but only visited “Eastern Europe” since the fall of the wall.
It’s really hard to imagine what life must have been like living behind The Iron Curtain but these episodes are helping to fill in the gaps with...”Read full review »
