Description
Namaste Friends. My name is 'Shinil Subramanian Payamal' and you are welcome to the Historylogy podcast.
On this podcast, I will be talking about the latest history book releases, reviews, archaeological discoveries, controversies, etc... I want to tell stories about people, places and events lost in the pages of history.

We will be having regular book giveaways on our Podcast. Also, there will be a special monthly giveaway for people who leave reviews of the podcast on their favourite Podcast app like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, JioSaavn, Gaana, etc...
