“I know very little about Bulgaria and little of the history behind this story, so it was a fascinating story. The podcast is excellently produced and presented. And there are more twists and turns than a twisty turnny thing.”

“I for one had never even heard of King Boris the third. I’m not much of a World War II historian and so this podcast was an eye-opening event for me. The research was excellent. The storytelling was engaging and every minute was enjoyable. Highly recommended.”

“I don’t have much interest in history, and this isn’t a typical ‘true crime’ podcast (my Go To genre)… but oh my god, this show is brilliant.
The research is top notch, the delivery is superb (the dry Brit sense of humour shines through), the tone is ‘light’ and easy to listen to, and the...”Read full review »

“I do appreciate that some solid research and writing work went into this podcast but the storytelling structure is slow and awkward. On top of that, the alliance with Axis Germany is acknowledged, it is not explored enough. And not explored from an objective point of view that the material...”Read full review »

She literally poo poos the archives in the second episode by asking if there’s any value in going into these documents to find out information…. What?!...”Read full review »
