Vote2018Insulting reviewWell that’s just rude!
-
LoganDylanEver a boring segmentI look forward to the new episodes that come out, however, why is it that some won’t play? i.e. 10/16/2021 Pakistani law that jails rape victims and 12/25/2021 Right to Drive in Saudi Arabia. As for a review, your program is wonderful, but I just would like an answer to my question.
-
Andrei braescuGood history podcastI enjoy the vast variety of topics brought up by this podcast but I also find myself fed up with the huge amount of episodes/sections in the episodes about LGBTQ stuff. There’s too much emphasis on the topic, considering the fact this is a history podcast, not a propaganda/brainwashing thing.
-
sciencepyarLOVE THISAlways good but the Uganda Asian episode was exceptional
-
Zee ZarateBBC The History HourExcellent!

GEFtheMongooseGreatI always learn something new

TojolohuCommunist propagandaMao, Stalin, Lenin, Marx, Hagel, etc would be proud of…this is CRT at its best. WOKE
-
camping crafterOriginal sourcesWhat I appreciate most about this history podcast is the fact that you somehow find original sources who were actually there or family members who were directly impacted by the events covered. Thank you for the carefully researched presentations. I know it can feel like thankless work but it is absolutely treasured by many of us.

wolfie/wolfBlack boohoo PC storiesYa we have heard more, poor me boohoo stories. Especially I’m so rich but a victim success story. Enough of the PC radical race theory. Everyone is so mean because I’m black as they laugh all the way to the bank.

jvgreenblattconsistently excellentI can rely upon them for entertaining, educational material delivered in a clear manner. Thanks

Colombia's finestGreat showLove this podcast, quick interesting stories. If you wish to pursue more on them that’s up to you.

ResumeWriterI Learn Something New With Each EpisodeA really great way to learn about historical events in greater depth. I’ve lived in both the UK and US and have a surface knowledge of many of the topics, but this podcast always goes deeper and helps me understand what led up to the events. Keep up the good work!
-
JackUSDKNot history but propagandaThe subjects of these wasted hours are selected by the BBC’s leftwing political commissars for the indoctrination of the audience. They have nothing to do with history.
-
Bulgur BuddieUnfortunate cut offI love this podcast, & look forward to hearing it every week. However, I was quite disappointed when the most recent episode cut off after only two minutes. Please remedy the issue so your listeners can fully enjoy the program.
-
EpicpandaluverLove the podcasts...Sometimes they don’t load or skip a bit. Other than this tech, the quality of the program is excellent. Very fair and factual view of history.

yoooooooooootkrnnWeakDeeply conservative and basic analysis despite the rich guy accents .

DFB3Great podcast!Well done,with excellent research and delivery!
-
GreenLantern52Why I’m unsubscribingI’m unfortunately unsubscribing to this podcast. It has a lot of interesting content but with the recent release of the episode involving Judge Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill that I realized this podcast has a definite political lean to the left. By not including the Judge’s side of the story nor all the facts against Anita Hill, they are showing they only care about one side of the coin of history. It’s unfortunate, but I like having both sides of the story not just the one you agree with.
-
doepenroseTitlesAwesome podcast. Interesting. Looking at past episodes they are mislabeled so don’t pick one you want to hear. Just listen to all of them. It’s worth it.
-
pernipicusFor history loversGood pacing to keep you interested and a good variety of events each episode.
-
queenlyfluxInteresting, informativeThis podcast is excellent, interesting, and informative, but it is also easy and fun to listen to. It highlights both major and little-known historical events. I appreciate that it investigates women’s history, disability history, and gay history. One of the best podcasts out there, highly recommended.

Mockingbird7Very enlighteningI have been binge listening to The History Hour while at work. I enjoy the format and the topics.
-
KatherynSueHistorical conspiracy theoriesI’ve always loved history and really enjoy this podcast. He does an excellent job telling the story in a way that keeps the listener interested while giving facts and explaining how these stories could have come out of the time period in question. I learn something new every episode. Would definitely recommend!
-
BluerEyedDevilIf you like.....If you like left wing sissies, virtue signaling, anti-white, anti-male bologna, this might be the show for you. Listening to this show makes it easier to understand how England is handing itself over to a hostile third world invasion and occupation of the land of my ancestors and won’t be long til I see them all with there foreheads to the ground and butts in the air five times a day in the next few years.
