“This is my favorite history podcast. Bruce is less concerned about political bent and is more concerned with what we can learn about where we are now from where we have been. Highly recommended!”

“Bruce has read and continues to read every political history and biography in print (and probably many that no longer are). He offers deep context to all these historic stories (especially those that you may think you know well), and is particularly adept at relating them to current events. And...”Read full review »

From the topics, to the hard work shown in the researched presentation, to the neutral (or rather balanced) presentation of the host, this podcast works. To highlight the balanced nature of MyHistory, this...”Read full review »

“Been listening for two years and as a high school history teacher, I’m delightedly surprised if Bruce’s well researched and relevant podcasts. Despite his vast variety of topics, he frequently brings connections to the present in a non partisan manner.”

“There used to be a time when people would do their best to put the personal politics aside and report the facts as evenly as possible. They’d let you know if something was an opinion.
Bruce honors that old (and sadly forgotten tradition) with well researched tales of historical events.

Although I consider myself fairly well-read where US history and politics are concerned - I always learn some new fact or pick up meaningful insight on past events with each episode.
Appreciate the pacing and the point of view.

“I came to this podcast because I heard an add where the host was saying something like his show isn’t biased. It most certainly is very much on the Left.

“Tried to listen 10 times in 2 yrs.
It’s not factual US history when viewed from his left leaning opinions, especially when the reader interjects his flawed opinions into modern day.
Seems he’s really full of himself, maybe was a history minor in college?
Some good information nonetheless.

“Your comparison of 1/6 and other events in American capital history seems to normalize the fascist Presidential coup. I have unsuccessfully tried to offer your comparison some benefit of doubt. It is undoubtedly misleading to make such comparisons. 1/6 is better compared to 9/11. I enjoyed your...”Read full review »
