Pros

  • Fall of civilizations is very good. The Easter island episode is amazing.
  • Fall of Civilizations is one of best ( if not the best) history podcasts out there focussing on that time period. Highly informative and wonderful to listen to. Paul Cooper has a great voice and is a master storyteller !
  • Fall of Civilizations - There's 20 episodes out now, and they are LOOOONG (the latest one was 5.5 hours) and he releases 1-2/year. Amazingly informative.
  • Fall of Civilizations and How to change the world both epic history pods with good production.
  • Fall of Civilizations. I wouldn’t recommend dropping him down to 0.8 but he’s pretty slow paced at 1.0 or 0.9.

Cons

  • Fall of Civilizations.
  • I've had trouble getting into pods like Revolutions, The Ancients, and Fall of Civilizations, because to me they just feel like reading a textbook.

I'd put him up there with all of the very best historical/period podcasts - Hardcore History, The Rest Is History, In Our Time, You Must Remember This, Once Upon A Time In The Valley/At Bennington, History On Fire, Martyr Made, Fall of Civilizations, The Rialto Report, We Have Ways Of Making You Talk etc.

I'm kind of a sucker for Fall of Civilizations. 3 hours on Genghis Khan with sound effects and readings from ancient documents? Yes please!

The two episodes on the mongol empire on Fall of Civilizations is a masterpiece as well. But frankly all episodes of that show are awesome.
