This may be a fantastic podcast, but I will never listen to it. One reason: It has spammed "The Constant" with the same annoying ad, hundreds of times.
And Bruce: You don't need to say www at the start of an internet address. The browser put them in automatically.

I listened to this podcast for years without knowing the personal political views of the author. To me that speaks volumes. This podcast is a great view into history's parallels with current events, presented in an interesting way.
Description
Since 2006, this podcast has been using history to elevate today's political debates. "The perfect antidote to bloviating talking heads, My History is thoughtful, nuanced, and highly engaging." -Columbia Journalism Review
