“Not sure how a Welshborn Oregonian lawyer made one of the best podcasts out there, but he did! Everyone needs a listen!”

“This probably the best History podcast I have heard. Very informative and the way it’s given makes you want to hear more. Jamie has a passion for the material and put his own personal stamp on it. Favorite episode was the one on Boudica.”

“I really enjoy this podcast. The amount of work he is putting into this is evident. It is a ton of information but is distilled down to manageable segments. I have found it very helpful when something sparks my curiosity about British history. I can dip into an episode or two and scratch that...”Read full review »

“A truly enthralling and enjoyable podcast. The time and work Jamie and Zee put in is incredible and completely pays off as I’m constantly learning new things about a period of British history I’ve always had an interest in. I fondly remember binging on the series, particularly when walking my dog...”Read full review »

“I don’t really like podcasts. This one is amazing. I ran out of new episodes, and since all other history podcasts sound like a nerd reading a Wikipedia page, I think I’m just gonna start all 450 episodes over again.”

“This is a great podcast for anyone interested in British history. I live in the UK and did history at school but did not know a fraction of the fascinating detail in this podcast.
It is great to hear about Hereford where I live.
Jamie must do an incredible amount of research and put in a...”Read full review »

“I like the podcast I like the detail and I like Jamie‘s general and enthusiasm for what he’s talking about. But as some others have said in the reviews it’s very clear that Jamie judges history through his modern lens of political and social beliefs. Which to be fair isn’t necessarily wrong but...”Read full review »

Unfortunately, Jamie has become very...”Read full review »

“The production is good and Jamie is a talented podcaster. However he does not have the ability to separate his own views about the politics in our late modern era from the story of British History. Maybe that would be tolerable in the late modern era of British history but he’s still in the early...”Read full review »

“I’ve listened to a lot of History podcasts. This is one of the best I’ve heard in a long time. Great job and keep ‘em coming!
On a random note, this show also has some of the best mic drop moments for a history podcasts. Season 8, episode 373, 6:05”

“If it wasn’t for the liberal judgments and virtue signaling I would definitely subscribe. Recordings are either repetitive or drawn out to make up for the irregular gaps in material. It’s become more of a woke conformist soap box.”

I assumed it would go on and on. I felt a great sense of loss at the end of the 9th season. Please...”Read full review »

“This podcast presents highly-researched material in a lively, irreverent fashion.
