Love the main show but not the bonus episodes
In the main show I think that Dan is a brilliant storyteller and manages to not treat the audience as either clueless or as experts. The Plantagenets story is exciting and this really comes across in the podcast. I never pay for podcasts but enjoyed the main episodes so much I paid for the bonus ones too - however I wish that I didn’t. They feel like they’re aimed at children, the tone is completely different to the main episodes as it feels overly simplified and dumbed down. I feel like it’s a shame because the topics that are covered are super interesting! I would give the main show 5* and the bonus episodes 2*. I would definitely like to listen to more podcasts by Dan in the future if they’re like the main show and less like the bonus episodes.

More reviews of This is History
Dan really does bring the Plantagenets to life. His knack for storytelling makes every episode exciting and interesting, I can’t wait for the next episode (even though we might know what happens next!)

Love Dan’s historical work and I’m thrilled with the podcast! Only two notes - wish subscribers could listen on other pod apps/Patreon and the eps were longer. Dan has a great take and ability to put you in the shoes of history’s characters while putting the circumstances into modern references.

If you haven’t read his The Plantagenets book then this is an excellent bitesize version. Excellent!
