Torn
I like like this podcast and have learned some interesting things over the last year and a half. Listening to subject historians on certain things like this podcast is set up to do, gives it depth. I just get a little annoyed at the “know it all” attitude of the host. It’s almost like he’s trying to impress or show off his knowledge of the subject to subject matter experts. His questions are always lined up the same. He tells a tidbit of off, little known, obscure, information, goes off about how it affects things that have nothing to do with the subject, then asks the question. I feel like the historians sometimes are taken aback or have to orient themselves to answer the question. The host also subtlety puts everything in a left leaning, liberal lens. Infusing his own politics to the subject which almost seems like he’s trying to change public perception of the subject or orient it to his way of looking at it. I believe history should be shown for what it is. Not politicized any which way.

The host...Read full review »

Interesting mix of topics, but could someone please help James with his pronunciation of the word nuclear? Because of the subject matter it’s a word that comes up a lot here, and every time he says “Nuke-yuh-ler” it makes my teeth itch! Sorry to be a plonker about it. Maybe if he thinks...Read full review »
