Clear, Concise, and Interesting
My History Can Beat Up Your Politics is by far my favorite podcast. Bruce Carlson presents current national topics within the context of American history. This context provides the framework to not only know American history better, but also to understand today's political climate more thoroughly. Carlson provides an answer to the question "how did we get here?". Every episode is well researched, clear-cut, and attainable to lay historians; Carlson neither condescends nor speaks so loftily that the amateur history buff (however avid or casual) cannot grasp the topics. I recommend this podcast for anyone who wants to learn more about American history and how it affects politics today.Read full review »

Love this podcast. It provides lots of interesting facts that were usually skimmed over in history class and then relates it to contemporary events.Read full review »

I was stunned by how Mr. Carlson avoids adding his own bias (still can't tell which way he leans). Very informative, kind of like killing two birds with one stone by learning about history and current events at the same time!Read full review »
