Great way to get info

Found this podcast through listening to Triviality and really enjoy learning about history through these two ladies. I’ve been picking and choosing through their back catalog, and I really enjoyed what I’ve heard so far.

Love these two!

I honestly just found this podcast and am busy binging the old episodes to catch up. Informative and hilarious- I love the trivia based deep dives! And the banter is fun without detracting from the actual subjects. Im glad to have a few years of episodes to catch up on while waiting on their new releases. Keep up the great work!

Opinionated

Rather than presenting the information in a respectful manner, the hosts put their very obvious conservative opinions into the dialogue. It’s people like this who make bigotry mainstream. Not sure about their other subjects, but LBGTQ+ art is not a topic they should ever have the right to discuss again.
