Inspired history with a twist
I've only started listening to this in the last few weeks, so I'm really enjoying the ability to binge listen to a couple of hundred hours of the greatest podcasting duo ever. In their usual style, the history is delved into in test depth, with little asides - only a few hours worth so far - giving cultural tidbits, historical importance of locations and people outside the immediate storyline, and the like. Whilst these stories aren't "necessary" they add to the experience. As appropriate Ray and Cam tie the history of what has happened then into our own recent (or current) history, showing no matter how much we like to think we've changed, humans still make the same mistakes. An excellent selection of music, jokes and historical narrative, including analyses from multiple perspectives (where available). Recommended for any interested in learning about one of the most influential people in Western civilisation.Read full review »

The one, two punch of Ray and Cam are...Read full review »
