They have careers, but bring this podcast to people who share their interest in history, especially shedding light on many characters that you wouldn't otherwise normally learn about. I greatly appreciate their ability to tell the story behind the history, and I welcome their personal take when there is conflict between authors. Love the bloopers, excellent choice of music, and the book review on every podcast is excellent, as well as accompanying facebook page if you want to go find the book. I also listen to the Life & Legacy of Napoleon podcast and recommend that one too. Timing of 20-30 minutes is perfect to keep attention and yet be thorough with the issue addressed in the podcast.
