One of the greatest podcasters

This gentleman is Mike Duncan author of “The storm before the storm The beginning of the end of the Roman Republic” a New York Times Bestseller ,and soon to be “Lafayette” a soon to be Bestseller.

He does a fantastic job at telling stories he has a “History of Rome” Podcast. He has a long career in this field of media, and does his best to find accurate information or even correct himself when he has made a mistake. One of my favorite Narrators and hope for more content in the future.

One of the all-time greats

Mike Duncan is one of the first names in podcasting. He, along with Dan Carlin, set many of the standards for history podcast. You won't find anyone who doesn't know his name in the podcasting world.

I have learned more then any College course

Mr. Duncan has a gift for making the story interesting. I have learned more then any College History class I have ever had. The episodes are an hour or so you do not run into information overkill. Collage Professors may even lean how to make there classes more inspiring so as to produce, in there charges ,more then the production of Melatonin.

More Quality History from Duncan

Followed Mike Duncan from History of Rome to Revolutions and he does not disappoint. This podcast does an excellent job of breaking down a difficult subject matter. Studying revolutions can be so turbulent and controversial. Duncan is able to piece together people and events without being overwhelming. Enjoying this!

Absolutely Fascinating

This podcast is unapparelled and epic in scope. It covers the English revolution, the American revolution, the French revolution, the Haitian revolution, the Spanish-American Wars of Independence, The July Revolution (1830 France),the Revolution of 1848, The Paris Commune, the Mexican revolution, and Russian Revolution (both 1905 and 1917). The English and American revolutions start of pretty slow but Mike really hits his stride on the French revolution and after that it becomes an amazing Podcast. You can tell Mike is passionate about the subject and makes its exciting.

An Epic Masterpiece

The Revolutions Podcast is one of the great works of our time. I listen to a lot of history podcasts and this is the one I listen to the most. I really like how the characters drive the narrative of the podcast, and how much Mike goes into detail about the characters in each revolution. The show is obviously meticulously researched, is very well written, and I also appreciate the occasional wry comment tossed in. Revolutions is a show with a vast amount of content, the French Revolution is something like 40 episodes. I think it's fair to say this podcast along with The History of Rome has been the inspiration for many other history podcasts over the years, and is the best place to start in the genre.
