Great Job
This is a great podcast for a relatively broad-brushstroke overview of ancient history. A lot of the focus is on the Near/Middle East, although excursions to China, India, and the Americans have happened. The presentation is a bit humorous, but mostly serious, but it is still very easy to follow and to enjoy. I look forward to each new episode and I hope that when Scott is done with this part of the world, he'll take a closer look at the other parts that seem to have fallen by the wayside in pursuit of this narrative. (Note that this is a pretty fair way to proceed; jumping to other parts of the world every episode would get hard to follow.)Read full review »

Great podcast on a facinating time period. Gives a great level of detail, not too deep, not too shallow. Well worth listening to and expanding your understanding.

History is filled with all sorts of stories not told, and Scott tells some of those. Excellent sound, excellent story telling and great podcast all around. If you love history and love to listen to a good podcast, you have found it. A must listen.
