From being a phenomenal must listen to podcasts to pure weird commercials? I have kept it on my list to see if they finally would come back but nothing. Don’t even give it a try anymore!

This show is great. However, you are the company you keep. Any connection to a blatant racist like Ibram X Kendi is too much for me. Just because you say you’re “anti” doesn’t make it less racist.

So far I like it. Hitler suffered from Parkinson’s disease.

Sad to see more and more historians changing their tune to abide by the cancel culture. Ever since the Civil War it’s always been a Democrat that’ suppressed rights.

Loved these when they first came out. I have listened to all of them to date, but have found that these stories continue to choose heroes and villains (historians should seek to be a little more objective...), leave out important details, and pick sides in political grey areas. I will not be listening anymore.

Are you seriously celebrating the Portland riots!?! I’ve thoroughly enjoyed “Flashback,” yet feel used. Do you vet the promos to your subscribers before they are pushed out and rattle many of us? I feel gullible and resent being blasted with promo in support of senseless Portland riots. In pushing this kind of propaganda, you’ve broken our podcast/subscriber relationship that I actively enjoyed. Please consider how your listener base is being used by your corporate partners. Many of us carefully curate the media we read, listen to and watch. I’ve gone dark on all media with even a sniff of bias. It’s appalling and galling your promo seeped through.

Sean Braswell has a great voice for hosting this very interesting podcast. I truly enjoy all the thread connections. I’ve listened to them all! I’m ready for the next season. When are you returning for the new season? I’m going crazy without a good podcast to follow!!!

I’ve learned some fascinating things from this podcast, particularly the one about Henry Ford and the one about Hitler.

I agree that the ads are inappropriately placed and frustrating. The host’s excessive mouth noises distract me to the point I cannot listen too frequently The stories are, however, fascinating

I’ve been enjoying the podcast but I think there may be something wrong with the Grace Kelly piece. The Hotel DuPont has long been known as the location of Prince Rainier’s proposal to Grace Kelly, not in NY Central Park. I’d love to know the truth!

Greatly enjoying the stories of connecting acts of history to the impacts on our lives. Very well done.

So far I have only picked and chosen the episodes, but I have enjoyed the three that I have listened to so much that I have now subscribed. Fascinating stuff.

Loved the ones about the cigarettes and Hitler doctor.

I enjoyed the detailed history of the first few episodes and thought this was a really cool podcast but as the episodes progressed there were more and more allusions to leftist politics. The point where you were praising a book hailed by Jeremy Corbin (like the vicious antisemite Jeremy Corbin) ... 🤢🤮

These are terrific. I love history and there is always a story behind the story. Thanks for researching and sharing!

This podcast is great! People that complain about commercial are the same people that complain about everything else. People gotta make a living!

hard to listen when I am hit with the romance podcast ads every 5 minutes. Kyle seems like a great guy but I am not happy about whatever that crappy podcast is supposed to be... When the actual podcast is on, I think it is amazing and really enjoy the insights and connections through history.

Love it - my newest favorite

This podcast is AMAZING. Succinct, seamlessly edited, funny, and extraordinarily eye-opening. It truly is the history class you’ve always wished existed.

Hitter had Parkinson’s disease

I love you podcasts. Listen to them during my walks. Learn lots of history that I did not know because I am an immigrant

Being a history junkie, these pods have been food for my soul. Knowing “the rest of the story” and the story within the story is very refreshing. Also during DoC (Days of Covid) it has been a great outlet

👍

No fancy voices or other add-ons needed. Just fascinating stories from history told very well.

This podcast has far too many commercials. There are many other podcasts with equal or better content without the incessant pitches. And the dialogue is too sophomoric. Who says “what did we learn this week” in an adult podcast? I’m done.

What an absolute delight listening to this podcast: well researched, social context, history and also a very easy listen-to voice

Really enjoying these unique takes on history. Can’t wait for more!

Am finding the episodes informative, enjoyable, and worthwhile. Just wish the facts about life before AC had included mention of the interim cooling system, i.e. evaporative cooling. It’s not as if residents in Phoenix, for instance, went from nothing to air conditioning, from complete misery to complete comfort. When the humidity was low during hot days, the cooler, as it was commonly known, comforted us quite nicely. It was when the summer’s high humidity set in and combined with the high temperatures that the cooler became useless and we were all miserable. For those days, air conditioning was, and is, a boon in the desert.

Very well researched with great sound bites and organization professional quality production.

Definitely enjoying this Podcast. Learn something new every day! That’s my motto. This is an unexpected way to learn many

Look into the unintentional consequences of planting male only trees in cities and towns in parks and along streets. What planners had hope and what really happened. This podcast in fascinating.

...left because of the ads. Like most podcasts now, the information density is extremely low.

Episode 6 is so enlightening. Well done once again.

Recently discovered this podcast. Have learned so much. Educational and entertaining. Look forward to listening to all the choices.

My father turned me onto this podcast and it’s a great listen!

I’m a newer listener to podcast, and a huge history freak. I love knowing little facts about how we got to where we are today. This show lays out history in a way that is easy to follow and also includes details that are interesting to know. Probably my favorite podcast about predated events!

Really cool!

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed all the topics covered by Flashback. The storytelling while sticking to the data while remaining objective makes this podcast particularly interesting. I recommend it to everyone that enjoys good, unbiased reporting.

I liked the one about Hitler, it was very well researched and presented.

Really enjoyed these episodes, easy to listen to and very informative.

Flatulence

Just discovered this podcast. Wow! It’s so fascinating to learn these historical twists and turns. Great job!

I also heard Hitler was the son of first cousins. Wonder if that’s true.

Love this podcast

Lessons from the past never cease to amaze. Like sitting with a favorite, storytelling professor, Flasback will teach you more than any textbook ever could.

Love the Thread and loving Sean’s newest series Flashback

Love this podcast, it gives me a new perspective every week on something I thought I knew about history. Bravo.

I love this podcast, it’s so informative and blows your mind with the crazy connections that inspire world events. 10/10 would recommend.
