Fascinating History, vocal fry and all
If you’ve ever wished your history was served up by a Canadian hipster sporting a slightly effeminate vocal fry, well wait no longer! According to the (presumably hand-picked) reviews on his site, at least one listener adores his voice. I am not among that crowd. But such things are personal tastes, I suppose. What I will say is that the author of this podcast writes well, and presents the material in a very engaging way. And the subject matter — medieval travellers in a surprisingly interconnected world — is fascinating. The only comment to new listeners of history podcasts is that he makes a lot of name-drop sort of references that many people won’t get. If you have a general sense of medieval history already then that’s all for the better (and I like the style actually), but if this is your first foray into history, prepare to get a little lost. But that just means you have more to learn about. So would I recommend this podcast to a friend? Yes, yes I would. Vocal fry and all.
