I just started Prophets of Doom, I've gotten about 2 hours in. I love it. The Blueprints is one of my favorite series.
Also do the survey

Judgement at Nineveh because it introduced me to the Assyrians, who are fascinating.
Thor's Angels which covers the vandal sack of Rome by Alaric, and then goes into the emergence of the Franks and Charlemagne. It is a dense four and a half hours with a lot to chew on.
Darkness buries the Bronze Age is an entertaining little half hour summary of the Bronze Age collapse. Generally his Bronze and Iron Age stuff is good IMO. Shields Of The West is another.
The current series King Of Kings series is ambitious in scale, digressive, and gossipy. I am enjoying it a lot,especially all of the anecdotes about the Assyrians, Medes, Persians, Babylonians, Elamites and Scythians.

Been listening to Ghosts of the Ostfront while jogging on the treadmill. Will probably start Prophets of Doom next.

What was the name of the book that he uses for Prophets. The one that was written by the guy that survived it
I feel like the WE WUZ meme is criminally underliked in this.
I love the Apache tears episode. Poor injuns got dealt a bad hand.
HH means a lot to me. I had some hard times working at a dump. I listened to HH all the time and I reccommend it to most people

How do you guys see the responses?
I really liked the new ones, the ones available for free, but when I went and bought some of the old ones, I was a little thrown by all the silly little after effects thrown in.
Dan seems pretty even handed, but I still stay away from anything involving religion, although Prophets of Doom was pretty good and fair.
>>1164649
Finish the poll and look.
>all these fags getting upset over people getting in fights over religion
>probably the people upset are redditors or faggots from /lit/ who don't like seeing people getting into a fight with each other

How am I a fedora wearing faggot if I wanna talk about religion? It's fun. Are you telling me I can't have a goddamn discussion about Christ?

>yfw /k/ has 60 year olds
I'm a fedora atheist, but I can't act like religion isn't a valid field of study or belief. I don't know that there isn't a god, I just don't believe it to be so.
A few year ago though I would be a total dick about it. It's probably the kids that like the military stuff and memes they half get. I know I was like that.

Explorers finding "alien" cultures and the little anecdote about the chinese having massive exploration fleets that might as well have showed up in europe had the emperors sailed that way and put more focus on it is just endlessly fascinating to me
>>1165012
That pic is pretty misleading though. Chinese ships of that era still had flat bottoms, a thing that size couldn't sail for shit, most historians think the biggest ships were just props, floated in a harbor to show off the emperor's might but. not meant to do jack. The actual ships were huge, just not that huge.
>>1165192
I'm picturing one of these ships running into a serious storm.
It's like Titanic meets Perfect Storm meets those balsa wood airplanes I tried to assemble as a little kid and they always broke immediately.
>>1165192
Also, is Columbus' ship really that impressive a metric?
I thought Santa Maria was just the largest ship he had, not that it was some grand, impressive thing
>>1164021
yeah, this one was great on a long road trip

>There are 3 women on /his/

Can we talk about some other history podcasts? Is there a good podcast that covers Greek history?
Eh. I don't like opinions and garbage presented by yelling or retarded fratboy behaviour. Reminds me of American documentaries.
I prefer to read books or the original sources whenever I can. Why aren't you?
