“JT Fusco is an amazing storyteller and historian.
I have loved the captivating way in which each episode is organized and then vocalized.
I discovered the Giants of History podcast at a low period in my life; I had just lost someone that I cared about. This podcast distracted me from my...”Read full review »

“I really enjoy this podcast series. I have learned a lot through it and he does a great job at keeping it interesting. The only downside is I wish I could have my kids listen to it because they love history too, but he unfortunately uses foul language too often and some of the episodes get a...”Read full review »

“Made it somehow through to episode 7 of Winston Churchill. This guy takes a paragraph from a book written by someone else and makes 2 episodes out of it. He uses “for lack of a better word” 10 times per 25 minute episode. He speaks exactly like I would, too many adjectives and repetitively, which...”Read full review »

“These are amazing Podcasts! I’ve even learned other things, within the podcast. Eg: BCE and AD as well as the difference in calendars and why we have leap years.. etc. I’m enjoying them so much, I became a Pantheon subscriber. It opened up even more great giants of History.”

However I wish the cleopatra series would’ve focused more on Cleopatra instead of Caesar and his murder. Caesar’s story is well told but she’s...”Read full review »

Say something once, or at most twice and we’ll get it. Then move on. The content is good and interesting. Unfortunately I find myself...”Read full review »
