“The best historical podcast on China I’ve found to date. The main focus is on Mao and his ideas and how they spread through the world and were reapplied to different circumstances, but the show does an incredible service in providing hours and hours of historical context about China, Chinese and western philosophers of the time, the broader geopolitics of the era, and more. There’s a lot of info to get through at some points so I do find myself listening to episodes twice sometimes to make sure I’m following, but that’s not a bad thing. Looking up maps and photos of key figures also helps me to retain better. Treat it like a lecture and you’ll get a lot out of this podcast.”
