Were the allies unified from this early stage, or were they suspicious and frozen by indecision?

I’m obsessed with Tom Holland, Dominic Sandbrook, and this podcast! These two historians are a perfect pairing - a mix of serious research with lighthearted presentation. Honestly, there’s something for everyone - Ancient Rome, American Witches, Oppenheimer, Cleopatra, Freemasons, Jesus, London Tours (so funny), even California. I haven’t listen to a book in ages (or any other podcast, really). Beware - Totally Addicting!

Wonderful on all counts.

I never leave reviews but I’m obsessed with this podcast. Tom and Dom are great. I feel like I’m hanging out with two guys - two lads - who love history as much as I do.

I haven’t joined the chat community yet but here I am leaving a review so who knows what I’ll do next.

Highly recommend- Harold Hoss

You guys are so good! I’ve been listening to you now for about 6 months and am almost caught up on all the episodes. It’s funny listening to how you have evolved from the early Covid years. My favorite were the 1968 series. ‘Brilliant’ to borrow one of your favorite terms. I use to be a fan favorite of Click and Clack the Marrucci bros. Car Talk. I think you guys have them beat. I could go on and on but it’s late where I’m at and dinner is waiting. Thank you thank you!!!

All of them. But 1968 my favorite. I’m American.
