Bad popular historian, repeats tired old cliches, makes factual errors, focuses on history as entertainment first and foremost. I was just really being a crank and I'm sorry for my post. Anybody getting into history is good.

Yeah, nowadays when you say not to listen to someone what I imagine is that they're a murderer or something

:geno: Yes, it's like a lava lamp.

Yeah with Dan Carlin it's just that there are so many much better history podcasts to listen to instead.

I'd say he's the LindyBeige of history podcasting but that might actually be a bit harsh.

Without wanting to derail the thread, is there a thread for history podcasts or anything? I enjoyed what I heard of Dan Carlin, and slightly excited to hear there's better podcasts out there.

There's a thread in RGD on historical and informative podcasts. I'd recommend Revolutions by Mike Duncan; he's a lot more concise and informative then Carlin, and he constructs a fairly entertaining narrative.

The Age of Napoleon is excellent even though the host is also an amateur. Very well researched

Our Fake History is also pretty good. It focuses on myths and legends, but it goes into depth on the historical background.

Someone did something similar a hundred or so pages ago, and put Bart / Lisa in Suzaku Castle. Then the next post was Homer dressed as Ryu with Marge saying "Now Ryu, don't you destroy this car"
