Thirded this recommendation. I'm ploughing through the 5th of (so far) 10 series - the Spanish American revolution - and every single one has thus far been fascinating. I cannot wait to then circle back around to his History of Rome podcast, which from reviews looks to be held in high regard.
- seattleiteite 5y agoI recently had the pleasure of being in the Naval Museum in Cartagena. When the tour guide got to the section of the museum featuring Vernon's attempted takeover of the city, I was ecstatic. I was like, "I know about this! George Washington's brother fought in that battle!" Thanks to Mike I can be THAT guy on history tours now lol.
- kayadera 5y agoYou are in for a treat. I've listened to the History of Rome several times, and it's fascinating each time. Enjoy!
- mmmpop 5y agoAgree, it's a slog for the fist couple dozen episodes as Mike gets into his groove but it's really great and I look forward to listening again once he wraps up Revolutions.
- VintageCool 5y agoBy the time he gets to "the long national nightmare known as Hannibal", it's pretty good!
