A classic podcast that inspired a whole genre; this is the perfect edutainment. More than a decade later, this remains one of my favourite podcasts. Totally worth spending 70-odd hours on this!

An absolute classic that covers Roman history from its origin to the fall of the western empire. The episodes are concise and consistent. The gold standard in history podcasting.

A classic narrative history podcast. Basically created the genre of "history of ..." podcasts. Atemporal. I recommend.

Mike Duncan has a gift for making ancient history approachable and interesting. He distills a hugely complex subject into manageable episodes with the right level of detail to keep the listener engaged. Definitely worth your time.
