As a newbie to podcasts, I was amazed with the intimate detail and context that Dan provides. In my eyes, it was brilliant! Perhaps something like this is the way that History should be taught – with proper context, emphasising the tragedies such as the unimaginable human toll of wars and conquests throughout history.
