I can safely say I have never listened to a single episode of their podcast. But then there are very few hockey podcasts I listen to anyway. It's mostly The Athletic Hockey Show, Puck Soup, and 32 Thoughts (which I haven't even listened to since Marek isn't doing it anymore). And Faceoff Hockey Show, but that's mostly because I've listened to them for years now. And listening to them fumble through Puckdoku, Immaculate Grid, and the new pyramid game every week is pretty amusing.
I think I lost brain cells just looking at that image.
Hardcore history is soooooo good. The 5? part series where he went through WW1 was probably one of the most eye opening things I've ever listened too. But then once I finished I told other people about it and it was just gone from apple.I think I lost brain cells just looking at that image.
I used to listen a ton of podcasts but now I've pretty much whittled it down to like a dozen or so I listen to regularly, and some of the history related ones I've listened to multiple times (Hardcore History is still the best, even if Dan only does like 2 or 3 big episodes a year). I pretty much stopped listening to any podcasts that discuss current events outside of hockey and weird news stories. I get more than enough of that angering and depressing shit doomscrolling on Twitter too much, especially the last few months.
I've listened to some of his podcasts and found them very good. If you like history podcasts there is one by two British historians called The Rest is History that is also very good. Somewhere along the line they actually had Dan on as a guest to discuss history's biggest questions or something along those lines. Their show covers numerous topics and while the hosts try to inject a bit of light humor it relies on academic sources so you do get what should be a genuine historical account of whatever topic they are covering.
sure
