I am a big fan of three listed. The rest I never heard of before :

1: Dan Carlin Hardcore History. This is by far the best one out there. Carlin is a great narrator and he is big on using primary sources to be in the shoes of people who experienced the events.

2: Mike Duncan Revolutions: Mr. Duncan made a name for himself with his "History of Rome" podcast. He moved on to Revolutions starting with the English Civil War. He has covered the American, French, Haitian, 1848, and now Mexican revolutions.

3: In Our Time: A podcast of a BBC Radio show. Covers topics in the humanities and sciences.

One not listed but I enjoy is "History on Fire" hosted by professor Daniele Bolelli; yes he has an Italian accent. He has some quirky interests covering subjects from Medieval Japan and the Native American experience.

Love all the podcasts that you listed. I also like “Our Fake History”, “Emperors of Rome”, “How it Began”, “Context”, and “The History of Ancient Greece”.

Free Republic's own Berosus hosts a very good podcast on The History of Southeast Asia.

It has carried me across many a long drive across the country, and is well researched and well presented.
