“King Kaufman finds such interesting nuggets from the past and tells the stories in such an engaging fashion. The episode on Randy Shilts was a real treat - a deep dive into a little remembered story of a real titan of journalism who plied his trade at the Chronicle.”

“I like this podcast. However, I think it would be well served if King Kaufman didn't use such a grating "news presenter" voice. His voice when he's not reading copy is far more natural and pleasant.”Read full review »

“These are short and fun to listen to, and you will learn something every time you spin back in this audible time machine whether or not you are from the Bay Area. King Kaufman has the perfect century-spanning voice and great tidbits of historical detail, plus archival material from the Chronicle....”Read full review »

“King and his crew have put together highly enjoyable historical nuggets about San Francisco, major world events and obscure happenings that you wish you could have been there to witness. Maybe you were. Enjoy one at a time or save up for a binge listen!”

“I listen to a lot of podcasts. Too many, maybe! And I find myself falling behind, just as I find myself with too many books I’ll never read. Which is the wonderful thing about NOT YOUR CENTURY. No matter what is happening, every day I’ve got the time for these quick history lessons, delivered...”Read full review »

“Excellent, and a must-hear for any knucklehead California resident, bec it is one of the great stories of the 20th century. "Don't blame anyone else. You just fasten it on me." This is dynamite, one of the great California stories of the 20th century. When St Francis dam collapsed,...”Read full review »

“Delighted to find Kaufman back behind the mic. His own previous pod — Can’t Win For Losing — was an under-promoted and largely undiscovered tour de force. Added bonus with this new glance back at your gramma’s news on this day: expect King to use background music by undiscovered music makers in...”Read full review »
