Aaaaaannnnnd we're back! We set the table for Season 2 and reveal where we will be spending our time together. In the predawn light of the 19th century the US finds itself in a world of giants. USS CONSTITUTION #History hitmpodcast.com/episodes/2019/…

Okay folks so clearly I meant 1794, not 1974, in the beginning of the episode. Low key dyslexia strikes again. Correction has been made.

So after spending two years doing a show revolving around ancient #Athens... I finally get to go! Let me know if you have any #Greece tips for me. Right now the plan is to hit Athens and #Santorini.

Well folks, #Greece is a stunning place. Come for the history and stay for, well... that and everything else. A few pics from the gorgeous #Santorini with more historyish ones to follow once I get back to the states.

The #Mycenaean and #Minoian artifacts at the National Archaeological Museum of Athens really blew me away! Did you folks know they used to wrap some bodies in gold? The most stylish #mummies you ever saw... The Mask of Agamemnon is probably the most famous example of this.

Thanks for the wonderful endorsement Danny!

Hey Folks! If you hear an ad on my show please let me know. There should not be any ads and some new services have been adding this show to their list. That is completely fine as long as they don't insert an ad. So help me out a bit and let me know if you hear a prerecorded ad

Flight attendant: Is there a doctor onboard? Dad: *nudging me* that should've been you Me: Not now Dad Dad: Not asking for a podcast producer to help, are they? Me: Dad, there's a medical emergency happening right now Dad: Go and see if "we'll put it show notes" helps

Can vouch for this. Used it quite a bit in some of the later episodes.

We made it into the 3 digit review club in the US! Thanks everyone for sharing the show!

If you haven't checked out Fall of Civilizations yet you absolutely should. It is a brilliant blend of rigorous research framed in such an interesting way. The most recent 4 hour long epic on the Aztecs reframes the way you think about the New World and Old World. #History #podcast

Space!

Just finished completely re-recording and overhauling 11 hours of podcast content on the Homeric Epics - 3 on the Iliad, 3 on the Odyssey. Episodes 9-14 of literatureandhistory.com. These are great places to jump in if you've never heard our show. Please RT to podcast fans!

Some excellent work on an excellent author.

Well done guys! Your work is evident!
