"There are also any number of one-on-one interview episodes with noted historians and experts in a variety of fields that help the listener understand their writing and research. Some contributors even appear more than once and the chemistry between them and the host is a great contrast to the narrative episodes written and narrated by Wyman alone. I highly recommend this series for any listener who takes their History seriously, and wants to digest it in an entertaining way. But if you’re looking for a “Ra-Ra”cheerleader ‘cast about one particular region, ethnicity, creed or economic model this is not the one for you."
