The worst vocal cry I’ve ever heard since the Kardashian family.

I have been a huge fan for 10 years, but please David Musgrove you maybe an excellent historian but you are terrible at journalism.

Most perfect history podcast there is! Such fascinating topics!

非常高质量的播客,断断续续听了好几年,每一次听都收获良多,涉及的主题大多数是关于欧美历史的,偶尔也有中国的,能通过历史学家严谨客观的视角,重新回顾很多有趣的历史事件和历史人物。

I can’t take it anymore!

I just listened to the historian Michelle P Brown discoursing on the life of the Venerable Bede and had to come on to say how deeply interesting I found her. She delivered vast tracts of information in a gentle and thoughtful manner that conveyed oceans of understanding and depth. Thank you for...Read full review »

Question for guest… confirmation bias much? This is another example of why academia and experts have lost so much credibility recently. This person clearly went into the subject with preconceived notions. They just massage numbers and perceptions to fit their leftist narrative of “guns bad”. This...Read full review »

I’m pretty pragmatic. With 2 PhDs and retired from Academia, I enjoy the occasional new age perspective. This abomination is nothing but revisionist history. It fails at all levels of scholastic review.

Thank you for the many topics. I enjoy learning about the topic and give me another way to understand the historical perspective.
Mzee G via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/29/24
What a great resource this is. Whilst I skip some shows as not the period of history I enjoy… I have listened to others knowing nothing about the topic and coming out educated. Great show
Carte1s via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/26/24
This is one of my my go-to podcasts What I like most about it in general is the open-minded view of history as a growing and changing discipline. Great stuff! One thing, though, for us foreign language speakers: please, please, please do your homework and learn to pronounce foreign words...Read full review »

Whenever the host talked it was unbearable to listen. Its a shame such great conversations are being distracted because of such bad sound quality from the hosts.
Nial18 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/31/24
love the show - five stars. But yes. the sound is bad sometimes. better sound engineering is needed.

The espresso doesn’t come from anything to do with rapidity, but from the verb esprimere, whose past participle is espresso, and which means to press, to ex-tract the juice or the essence of a fruit or a berry. There were other mistakes of historical nature, such as the first coffee house in...Read full review »

Enjoying this podcast so far. Wondering if given recent world events it might be timely to visit the 1948 Nakba of Palestine.
Bell Monroe via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 08/20/24
So many great topics but the presenter just sticks to question and answer model rather than engaging in conversation which makes it feel somewhat disingenuous.
GeeFletcher via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/17/24
This is one of my go-to podcasts, and has been for years. Excellent quality and variety of material. It’s not easy to put out a 45 min episode every day and still have interesting things to talk about. This podcast manages that feat with quality and depth. Are there ads? Yes. Just skip...Read full review »

Way to many Ads no thank you
edmundsT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/21/24
This podcast is as fascinating as it is relaxing. Perfect for a knitting session or a walk, and honestly, with the lighter more fun episodes at least, a great pod to fall asleep to (although I re-listen to whatever I missed!)
Etre2150 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/12/24
I love the History Extra Podcast. All the guests are very interesting and professional. All the hosts are very gracious and entertaining.Keep up the good work.
Athanasios v. via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/30/24
I truly enjoy the show, so much more interesting than reading a history book! I must give a small critical comment though. The May 27 episode about Galileo was very difficult to listen to. The way Dr. Hannam’s voice started strong but trailed off to almost a whisper in every sentence, it was...Read full review »

Like all podcasts from this provider ads drop in at totally inappropriate times, mid flow, mid sentence, even mid word. The provider doesn’t seem to care. So I don’t care to listen any more, unfollowed.
cairomike via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/10/24
My favourite history podcast!
Si_Jo via Apple Podcasts · Ireland · 06/09/24
Surely a Netflix series waiting to happen? Astonishing story, despite the breathless delivery of the presenter l enjoyed it so much 👍
Mr Snuffaluffagas via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/19/24
Interesting high quality content. Thank you BBC
NappyDresser via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/19/24
I can always count on BBC History Extra for great stories from the people in the know, expert historians and authors who have done their due diligence. Stories I never would see otherwise and makes me hungry for more about the subject at hand. In a world of never ending crisis-driven news, its a...Read full review »

My favourite history podcast. I love the range of topics, it allows me to learn about a lot of different parts of history. I really enjoy the ‘everything you need to know’ series.

I find it hard to listen when the interviewee has an American accent. Sorry.
hubbardshills via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/27/24
Always interesting!
Pen4321 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/17/24
I enjoy this podcast very much. It is low key but lots of interesting, different subjects. Thank you.
Mozzatess via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/16/24
Why was the guest on the Byron show laughing all through it? I wish you explained why every aspect of Byron’s life and work was worthy of giggles .
trillionshelper via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/24
I enjoy this podcast and listen to it before sleep. It generally covers the topics at a surface level only but it’s interesting for those who have not already studied that topic in depth. Very British centric.
LizS3333 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/16/24
This is one of the best history podcasts around. There’s a variety of topics so there’s something for everyone. I really look forward to this every week.

This is a well informed podcast and very easy to listen to.

I look forward to each episode. Just the right length. Give this podcast a try!
LindaB23 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/12/24
I say this as a high compliment! I struggle to fall asleep, and there’s something about these well-told and well-timed stories that helps me relax and fall asleep.

This podcast has unlocked a new passion for history. History is for everyone!
PeacockEye via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/11/24
I listen to a wide variety of podcasts, but have to say this one is my absolute favorite. The discussion on a wide variety of historical subjects are highly entertaining while having the bonus of being educational!
LucyDemare via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/10/24
In-depth and interesting subjects presented in an informative and probing manner. My go to history podcast.
Earldor via Apple Podcasts · Finland · 04/10/24
One of my favourite podcasts, I am not a professional historian, but history has always been a special love of mine. I love the variety of topics, viewpoints and authors that are presented, also I enjoy that the podcast provides an as much as possible objective perspective on things, I like that...Read full review »
