“Tom is a saint and Dom a hero. I’ve listened to every history podcast I can find and nothing compares to these two. They truly make listening fun and when they start selling shirts I’ll be the first buy one.”

“Have recommended to a zillion chums. They’re very good at acknowledging the emotion of history (there’s always a side or a person you’re rooting for) - while acknowledging this and pointing to imperialist and nationalist nonsense that’s been handed down as ‘history’.
As a former TV Producer, I...”Read full review »

“I had this in my library for over a year but always played politics shows if I had time. I saw Dominic on the US election TRIP show and he was so impressive I thought I’d give the show a try. Just finished the US 1968 series and it was great! Now I’m delighted to have so much content to go...”Read full review »

“Have enjoyed this podcast immensely, and the level-headed approach. But comparing George Wallace to Donald Trump and the description starting with words about segregation is pathetic and egregious. Seriously, can you please have a dislike for Trump without falsely comparing him to...”Read full review »

“I should have clicked on this earlier. Why didn’t I? Phenomenal detail, contextually varied and a pinch of well timed, light hearted commentary. I guess now I have a whole back catalogue of episodes to listen to on the commute. Hooked.”

“You can’t change history to fit a narrative you want to mold into you’re current politics. This happens way too much with these hosts. It discredits the whole podcast. Unlistenable.”

“In 1968 I was working for the peace campaign and was present in Chicago. I was pleased when someone brought this podcast to my attention and listened to it. It is poor. How an academic can associate himself with this sort of sloppiness I have no idea. Let’s pick up two points: Tom, the main...”Read full review »

“Just google their work outside of the podcast. Dismal. Uninspired. Bigots. Anti-LGBTQ. Transphobic. Disappointing on every level.

“As much as I enjoy the episodes, it’s incredibly frustrating to be cut off mid series, and made to wait months to a year to hear the ending.
