“I listen to hundreds of podcasts, and this is one that is increasingly on my "must hear" list. I teach American civics to a class of international students and find the podcast is helping me fill in some of the gaps that my own previous history classes rarely dealt with. Right now I'm trying to get straight the origins and exit points of the two World Wars in order to get a better sense of how the countries my students represent (most are from either the Middle East, Africa, the Caribbean or South America) came to be formed or transformed as a result of the wars. World War I in particular has been a blind spot for me. I like how the podcast breaks up major "events" into sections each from different and often competitive angles so as to encourage us to see the whole complicated picture as an open field of discovery rather than a closed field of deadening and final conclusions.”Read full review »

“Nick Shepley has a great sense of narrative drive. He also does an admirable job of choosing topics of the appropriate scope for each podcast, so that he can showcase details and contingencies without drowning in them.”
