Entertaining and informative!
James is an entertaining storyteller. I’m up to episode 133 and still going!. Thank you James for taking the time to read all the ancient sources and synthesise them into a digestible format for this podcast series because it makes it easy and entertaining to understand history and the context around otherwise fairly dense, opaque, and hard-to-find historical texts and events! I’m not a Christian but enjoy studying the bible for its historicity so I found the biblical history analysis particularly interesting with some really good insights. If you want to understand the meaning of life, first study history, because everything that exists today is a product of that ancient history - from our laws to our religions to our languages and more. Thanks for the work you put in to the podcast, James! - Tanya
