It has carried me across many a long drive across the country, and is well researched and well presented.
From the Top Ten list, In Our Time and Revolutions are great. I’ve gotten tired of Dan Carlin, though, and Malcolm Gladwell is simply tired.
But I can’t wait to listen in to “The History of Southeast Asia” by Berosus. I’ve enjoyed the very limited but very interesting “A History of Indonesia” by Anthony Frisina.
Also on my list:
- History of English Podcast (great!!)
- History Extra Podcast
- Tides of History
- The Explorers Podcast (excellent!)
- Ancient World Podcast
- The Podcast History of the World (very short episodes and enjoyable for it)
- John Batchelor Show (lots of history)
I’ve consumed these and many others, and I completely respect those who have taken the time to produce them, so difficult!
Texas Booster and Nicollo, thank you for your kind words. I was inspired to become a history podcaster three years ago, when I saw history podcasts popping up all over the Internet, like mushrooms on a wet lawn. This list confirms it; I have listened to quite a few podcasts, but the only ones on the list I had heard of previously were Hardcore history and Revolutions.
Anyway, The History of Southeast Asia podcast is hosted at https://www.blubrry.com/hoseasia/ . You can also catch it on iTunes, Stitcher, and several other websites and apps that offer podcasts. The latest episode went up last Tuesday, where I gave an introduction to the Cold War era (1945-1990).
