It gives me a weird feeling, moving straight from history to fiction in the same podcast feed cringe

    I started listening to it and thought the vibes were fucked. Covering his own fiction in the same tone he uses for historical events is just weird as hell, don't like it.

    I liked Revolutions and think most of the complaints about it are silly in the face of how broadly impressive it was, but this sounds unlistenable. the podcast about history books he previously announced made way more sense

    It's pretty lib brained in the first two episodes - basically arguing that nothing ever changes and revolutiona are pointless and capitalism is eternal.

      He's always been extremely lib brained.

      I've made several comments like this on here but it pisses me off that the only podcast I've found that covers individual revolutions in long form with a documentary tone is so overtly ideologically lib. It would be so easy to not betray the good, solid structure of the podcast to make stupid uneducated side comments, but he just can't help himself.

    For a second I got Mike Duncan confused with Michael S Judge and got excited.
