“Sad to see our students only getting a one sided view of history. I used to enjoy these even if I had a different perspective. Please bring in some more conservative voices to balance.”

“Content is good but has a clear slant that at times becomes excessive - I can watch CNN if I want a totally leftist view of history. Particularly the cult lecture. As a psychologist I worked those events without agenda - the Professor clearly did not. Reading and philosophizing second hand is...”Read full review »

“The content is solid, and the topic extremely important and interesting. However, the lecture would be so much better without the constant insertion of the word. “Right” it’s equivalent to a teenager constantly saying the word like it’s far more interesting without the constant insertion, which...”Read full review »

“Awful listening to this lady yammer on about how the lands existed and were populated prior to creation of the national parks. I’m not sure how her lecture ties into any type of history of the national parks. It’s sad to listen to people who have an obvious biased and stained perspective on...”Read full review »

“This was once a fantastic series, but now is a set of lectures curated by a collegiate diversity and inclusion department. Do yourself a favor and read the source material without the ridiculous modern-day unnecessary political propaganda.”

“I like the podcast.
I do have a suggestion: Please include bibliographic sources in every lecture. It’ll be helpful for those who want to further research a particular topic of interest.”

“Deeply disappointed in CSpan Lectures for elevating Roosevelt’ book tour. One can challenge the merits of originalism and the Founding, but KR’s effort of papering over his political takes with a strained view of history was amateurish. I suspect the only reason he gets even this platform is due...”Read full review »

“This is the Howard Zinn version of American history. There are about a 100 other history podcast that are more balanced and much more interesting. Avoid this one. It is shrill and very biased.”

And since when do navy doctors not know much about gun shots? You mean the guys that are on the battlefield?! Makes me wonder what else they are...”Read full review »

“Forgot to mention the Jupiter missiles in Turkey on top of the Bay of Pigs? This “lesson” sounds like the US being “under aggression”. The “lesson” suffers from many gaps and is not objective. The “quid pro quo” would introduce some nuance. And the “perception” or knowledge of the public is far...”Read full review »
