“I have found the spread across history of politics interesting. It has helped me to look into historical events I didn’t know about. However I have been very disappointed about the comments that Richard and Kate have made about current events and ideologies. They have been very slanted, treating left-leaning opinions as facts.
There were certain historical episodes where they did a great job of explaining how certain facts were known (ie “so-and-so wrote in a letter...”) but there were also some times where opinions and feelings of parties involved were assumed based on today’s popular ideologies and stated as if they were obvious.
I would still recommend a listen because I learned a lot, but I also took most of what I heard with a grain of salt.
UPDATE: Earlier on I enjoyed it more, but I couldn’t even listed to the whole Clinton episode because they were defending the President while vilifying the people who were investigating him. I stopped listening at the point because their bias was so obvious I could no longer trust their research. 😞 I so enjoyed the beginning of this podcast, I was very disappointed by their later episodes!”
