Amazing true story telling
I stumbled into this podcast and was a bit thrown off by the title…. But started the series about 1941 German invasion of the Soviet Union and listened to all 5 episodes in one day! This went into such detail,, I had never heard before even though I knew the over arching story. I’ll be back for more. Great job with this presentation

My New Favorite Podcast!
Just found this podcast and I love it. It’s history in story form but the facts and data mixed with the social and psychological details are a perfect mix. Highly recommend.

Very well done!
I have a short attention span yet, listen to this podcast for hours at a time. Elliot brings life to every story. The WW2 episodes are my favorite, but they’re are all worth listening to. These heroes should not be forgotten. Great job!

I am 70 years old…
… And I thought I knew just about all there was to know about World War II, of which my father was a veteran. However, I am learning a lot more these days through your most wonderful podcast.
You supply human details that are stranger than fiction. Thank you for your excellence!

Incredible storytelling and scholarship
He tells well-researched and deeply human stories that bring the historical figures and the people around them to life in an authentic way. His narration is both objective and culturally sensitive. I appreciate that I don’t detect some of the intellectual pitfalls of many Western historians describing other cultures, especially Muslims. Very entertaining and informative. Definitely a treasure for the intellectually curious who love the human saga.

greatest stories ever told via podcast
Eliot is a master story teller, who’s passion for history grabs your attention from start to finish. Whether or not you like history or a particular podcast subject is irrelevant. Once you start listening to a heroic tale told by Eliot Gates, you’ll be hooked.

Great topic!
The host delves into historical that are not too common. I mean, who knew that Hungary was a great power that was laid low by one battle. Exciting to hear about it. Can’t wait for part 2! His voice is great. Great show!

Great story teller!
This is a wonderfully fun podcast! The narrator is a fantastic story teller, who makes history sound and feel as if it were happening right now. The well researched details and insights that he adds to the stories you think you’ve heard before makes them sound completely new. I’ve already listened to them all and can’t wait for more to come out! Thanks for your hard work!
All the best!

Brilliant show!
I really enjoy the way he discusses historical figures that people should know more about. My favorite episodes are about Skanderbeg and Prince Eugene of Savoy! Overall I’m excited to hear more from him, plus he has a great accent!

Anthology of Heroes
Enjoyable and easy to listen to podcast about lesser know historical figures. Eliot’s research is in depth and he offers opposing views of the same incident.
