A roundtable discussion with some of those respected scholars in a field of historical study, expertly moderated by one of the classiest and most well spoken British radio hosts in the business.

In my opinion, too many history podcasts consists of one person simply reading scripts into a microphone. I much prefer the lively conversations featured here as something about the variation in voices and perspectives makes much of the information easier to absorb.
