My favorite kind of history…and podcast

Revisado: 05-09-23

I actually really like studying history. I’ve never thought it dull but it is very overwhelming. I also have always been drawn to the odd and curious side of things. Quirky topics are my favorite. I love these brief, bizarre bits of history. Not only do the random topics pique my interest but since they are so short, each approximately 10-15 minutes long, it’s easy to find the time to listen. It’s a great little treat when you need to take a break or want a fun distraction. I really like the narrator’s voice, speed, expressionism, and fun, honest opinions/reactions like “What the hell?” I enjoy the real audio clips for the bit of authenticity they add to the historical topic, as well as the fake added sound effects for extra entertainment purposes. All combined it makes the reading much more dynamic. I also like how they cite their sources at the end because if I want to learn more about the topic I know where to look. I rarely listen to podcasts even if the topic interests me simply because I don’t want to commit a lot of time or concentration. But these are little gems and I can’t wait to hear the next episode. It’s exciting, too, because you have absolutely no idea what the topic might be. You do know it will be both bizarre and brilliant!

Her strength is inspiring

Revisado: 01-22-23

With all the multifaceted challenges that ranged anywhere from insane, cruel, confusing, conflicting and controlling, I’m so relieved and impressed that Jennette was able to find herself, speak up for herself, care about herself and accept herself. I’m so happy she is living her own life on her own terms. To get to that place took an unbelievable amount of courage and strength. It’s inspiring and hopeful that she achieved such a tremendous transformation. She should definitely be proud of herself.
