A history podcast for people who hated history class, music if you liked the new André 3000, and a favorite new book
The Sunday supplement #97
If you’re like me and you like history, but disliked history class, check out the podcast Fall of Civilizations (or, coming out next month, the related book).
If you don’t already know it, it’s a series of fairly dramatized deep dives into the rise and fall of the Pharaohs, Byzantium, the Aztecs, and so on.
Good storytelling, good production, generally pretty good.
