About the Show
In the summer of 2013 my wife and I moved into a new home and in a hilarious
turn of events I lost her new iPod, bought her a
new one and (of course) immediately found the missing one. I took this as proof that despite years of resisting Apple, choice was an illusion, and figured that since I had one, I might as well put it to use during my daily three hour commute.
I quickly grew tired of my entire music collection and I was beginning to feel my brain atrophy when I became convinced
that there must be a more constructive use this time. This is when I
discovered history podcasts.
I was soon hooked on shows like Cameron Reilly's Napoleon Bonaparte Podcast, Mike Duncan's The History of Rome and Revolutions and Robin Pierson's History of Byzantium.
However, despite the existence of a vibrant and diverse historical podcast community I was surprised that there didn't seem to be much on offer for American history and I conceived this podcast to help fill that niche.
