I wish all Americans would learn about this history
Great podcast! Every episode is well researched and cited. Host has a wonderful speaking voice. Really enjoy learning about Russian history from an American with Russian heritage and real world connections.
This is excellent, I am a 12 year old who loves history and this really helped me understand this topic!
Good
I just wanted to say that I've been enjoying this podcast. I was not familiar at all with Russia's history from long ago and Mark Schauss has done a great job of covering the important elements without going into too much detail where the episodes get too long. His take on survival under the Mongol domination was interesting and I like how the social elements like religion and economics are touched on in addition to the lives of the rulers.
This podcast is such a gift. I had forgotten so much of the rich, long, and detailed history of Russian people. The fact that this podcast is done by one man in his free time for the consumption and enrichment of all is noteworthy on its own. The fact that his voice is so confident and passionate delivering a truly well researched, easily accessible episodes for the fans of Russian history in the lens of its rulers is truly praiseworthy. спасибо большое!
