    Political Views
    Interesting stories of history but need to leave out your modern day views of politics. They seem flawed and misinformed.

    Amazing true story telling
    I stumbled into this podcast and was a bit thrown off by the title…. But started the series about 1941 German invasion of the Soviet Union and listened to all 5 episodes in one day! This went into such detail,, I had never heard before even though I knew the over arching story. I’ll be back for more. Great job with this presentation
  • Dawnlandia
    My New Favorite Podcast!
    Just found this podcast and I love it. It’s history in story form but the facts and data mixed with the social and psychological details are a perfect mix. Highly recommend.

    Glad I found this podcast. Really great stuff
  • Joe in CT.
    Very well done!
    I have a short attention span yet, listen to this podcast for hours at a time. Elliot brings life to every story. The WW2 episodes are my favorite, but they’re are all worth listening to. These heroes should not be forgotten. Great job!

    Khalid Ibn-Waleed
    Info was generic but some of the most important parts regarding Khalid was missed. Especially regarding his acceptance of Islam and how he got his title sword of Allah.

    I am 70 years old…
    … And I thought I knew just about all there was to know about World War II, of which my father was a veteran. However, I am learning a lot more these days through your most wonderful podcast. You supply human details that are stranger than fiction. Thank you for your excellence!

    Great show
    Great stories, great storytelling. Elliot does such a wonderful job bringing often difficult material to life. His curiosity is contagious and wonderful.
  • J. Maryam
    Incredible storytelling and scholarship
    He tells well-researched and deeply human stories that bring the historical figures and the people around them to life in an authentic way. His narration is both objective and culturally sensitive. I appreciate that I don’t detect some of the intellectual pitfalls of many Western historians describing other cultures, especially Muslims. Very entertaining and informative. Definitely a treasure for the intellectually curious who love the human saga.
  • lionszen

  • This song sucks99
    greatest stories ever told via podcast
    Eliot is a master story teller, who’s passion for history grabs your attention from start to finish. Whether or not you like history or a particular podcast subject is irrelevant. Once you start listening to a heroic tale told by Eliot Gates, you’ll be hooked.
  • Dickwad22
    Great topic!
    The host delves into historical that are not too common. I mean, who knew that Hungary was a great power that was laid low by one battle. Exciting to hear about it. Can’t wait for part 2! His voice is great. Great show!
  • SeanV12!
    Great story teller!
    This is a wonderfully fun podcast! The narrator is a fantastic story teller, who makes history sound and feel as if it were happening right now. The well researched details and insights that he adds to the stories you think you’ve heard before makes them sound completely new. I’ve already listened to them all and can’t wait for more to come out! Thanks for your hard work! All the best!

    Anthology of Heroes
    Enjoyable and easy to listen to podcast about lesser know historical figures. Eliot’s research is in depth and he offers opposing views of the same incident.
  • Hernan El Maestro
    This Podcast Is Exceptional
    The storytelling is captivating. The production quality is great. If you like stories about freedom fighters who are not household names, then this is the podcast for you. Can’t get enough of this. Great job!

    What a cool way to learn!
    I love learning history, but usually the stories are told in such a boring way. Not that way here! The host keeps it entertaining and really paints the picture for you. The stories are super interesting and some serious research and effort goes into creating this. Well done!
  • Reggie4jesus

    Not clickbait crap by any stretch
    This show is well researched and engrossing. The episode about the “cannibal emperor” is dark and fascinating.

  • Ttrips84
    Unique among History Podcasts
    Such a colorful cast of unique and fascinating characters throughout history. Narrator has a very pleasant voice & stories are fresh & interesting. Blackbeard episode is my favorite so far, but have many more to dive into!
  • Wizard Squad
    Interesting first episode, looking forward to those to come
    I’ve only ever heard about Skanderbeg from “crazy” uncles that would bring him up at family gatherings. It was interesting hearing about the history from a more unbiased third party teller.
