“Okay there are good and bad seasons of this podcast. But the latest, to promote the upcoming Skull and Bones game, is rough. Historically, Paradiso/Ubisoft employ a history expert to help provide some credibility to the narrative.
In this season, we have Michelle Rodriguez. She is a mediocre...”Read full review »

“I grew up playing Assassins Creed but never took the time to appreciate the real world historical influence found within each game. Now that I am older and find history more interesting I am happy to have stumbled across this podcast. Ali and the others do an excellent job of narrating and I look...”Read full review »

“Overall, I am too old for the podcast. Words like YOLO, dolla bills, etc. are used normally and in a cringey/forced way. Bridging topics sounds scripted and forced, they need to relax a bit. Rhetorical statements are also everywhere, which when my age seems condescending. It may be good for...”Read full review »

“As an Assassin's Creed fan who is curious about the time periods in which each game takes place, this podcast gives detailed and historical information about the daily life of people in that particular time.”Read full review »
“As a long time fan of the assassin creed series I can confidently speak for the fanbase when I say the cultural accuracy to the era and setting is almost as - if not as important as the gameplay. It essentially gives the background of the narrative. Especially in this case - we get to see Basim’s...”Read full review »

“Olomi and Hassanein’s storytelling is engaging and compelling, telling history from new perspectives and giving a deep dive into Islamic culture. I listened to Episode 3, “The Harem,” and it completely challenged my preconceived notion of what a harem was and offered me unique explanations of how...”Read full review »

“This podcast is such an easy listen and super informational. I listened to Season 5 which focuses on the Islamic civilization and I found it to be really engaging. I think this podcast is a really cool way to learn about history.”

“I personally loved this podcast, the one I listened to was really great as it talked about how society currently views the Middle East, and then goes into what the middle east actually was. This was really interesting to hear because so many people are not as educated as they may think they are...”Read full review »

“I like how the implementation of history makes the game that much more real. People like to play games that have historical aspects embedded within the gameplay. It also spreads the rich history of Islam and the Middle East.”

“I love learning about this stuff but in some of the episodes it's incredibly difficult to understand what the people are saying. Trying to listen to episode 3 and had to stop because the lady's accent is really rough and she slurs her words together way too often. I can barely tell what...”Read full review »

“I wasn’t necessarily expecting a fair treatment of Catholicism so I thought three stars is a good start.To have your sins forgiven you actually have to confess them to a priest— that is sins that kill the life of the soul. The pope was given an indulgence. So to have the restitution due to sin...”Read full review »

“I followed the “history guy” on YouTube and he mentioned this podcast series so I started with the very first episode and bing-listened to them all. It is very interesting and complex. If you’re interested in the history of western culture, this is a must. It fits in nicely with the movies and...”Read full review »
