  1. mhoostal –

    Thanks so much for delivering this series for free. Its a boon for those without great expendable money but still an interest in history.

  2. daybreaking –

    Absolutely fantastic! One of my favorite podcasts of all time. Dan makes the subject matter as engaging as a thriller while being very informative about history.

  3. ndeezy27 –

    The most amazing piece of storytelling I’ve ever heard. The Blueprint for Armageddon series hooked me onto HH. As a result, I’ve purchased, and listened repeatedly to all of Dan’s episodes. I can’t fathom how somebody can listen to this episode and not be moved in some way.
