This is perhaps the most informative podcast I listen to and I learn something new and amazing every episode! And for it all to be free and with out advertising blows my mind! Always very interesting guests and Russel is an excellent and well informed host. A gem of a podcast!!

A great history-focused podcast. Guests are well picked and the host regularly asks questions or makes comments that lead to interesting and insightful discussion on topics left unaddressed in the typical book/subject review style podcast.

Russell has such an engaging manner and is always well prepared for his guests. One of the best interviewers I’ve had the pleasure of listening to. I hope it never ends.

Russel asks good questions without being intrusive or stepping on his guests, who are some of the top historians being published today.

Russell chooses wonderful authors and they proceed to have a delightful conversation about their book, its time period, and the issues it raises. Not just a deep dive into dry historical events, the human elements of history are kept onstage throughout. After each episode, I feel better informed...Read full review »

Really enjoy this podcast. It covers a wide range of topics from film to history, with some top notch guests who are not only specialists in their field but also great storytellers. Delightful conversations.

This is a first rate show. If you like reading books on history and like reading reviews of such books then this is the podcast for you. It’s really wonderful to hear the authors tell the stories in their books first hand. Thank you!

I particularly enjoy the discursive podcasts dedicated to films and the wide diversity of voices (some of my favourite writers seem to appear regularly) and Russell is an empathetic and wise host who has a genuine enthusiasm for the subjects he talks about, (he’s obviously read the book in...Read full review »
