“My God, what the devil is this? I listened to the first few episodes and enjoyed them as great history lessons but this verges on fawning fan fiction. The description of his role as president of the actors guild and the fact that he ardently destroyed the lives of creative artists on flimsy evidence is an insult to the historical record. This woman sounds like a nice lady but good lord it adds nothing to my understanding of this man. Very disappointing for a podcast that held great promise for me. Oh and that ‘Reagan won the Cold War’ trope deserves to be explored beyond the most superficial banalities that are spouted here. Hate to bail on this podcast but I’m afraid I can’t quite hear it quite the same way again.”
