"I need 4000 of your best warriors."
"Best I can do is 20 turkeys, take it or leave it."

I'm obsessed with these podcasts. The execution is perfect! So well done with the subtle background. Balanced between facts and feeling. You have the perfect voice for this. Please keep going!

I was surprised when it finished and saw it passed more than 4 hours, it felt like 30 minutes. It was so enjoyable, I wish history at school was this interesting. The best history channel on YouTube for me.

My daughter of 9 often critisises me of keeping my feelings bottled up. She came in as i was listening to this podcast and asked me what's wrong- i had tears in my eyes. I usually tell her all, in details, I don't shelter her too much from the sadness in the world. I couldn't tell her now what i felt for the Aztecs, how i suddenly missed them even without ever really knowing them, and that what i miss the most is the chance of ever knowing them. How do you explain to a child that man is so often so cruel that he is capable of destroying a whole nation? How does this story come to repeat itself so many times in our history?
Thank you for this channel and especially this episode!

This series is an absolute masterpiece.

There probably isn't enough information to go on, but I'd love to hear something about the North American Mound Builders.

Moctezuma is one of the most tragic figures in history. This is a beautifully told narrative and reveals parts of Cortez's character and motivations that haven't been discussed in other productions. The final battle for Tenochtitlan is epic, easily matching any of the great battles of European and Middle Eastern history. Well done!

I haven't seen anything on Youtube so masterly made. I beg you to produce more material of this quality, dedicated to other subject matters..

These podcasts are better than any documentaries I’ve ever seen, BBC, NATGEO etc. I’m a documentary freak. So glad for these, especially now!

As a historian, I love the work you are doing. This is a fantastic series. I am very impressed.

You have brought Tenochtitlan back to life, for a while, perhaps more vividly than in any other of your podcasts I have listend to so far. I really appreciate the poetry you include, I didn't know any survived, and it makes me especially sad. I sincerely hope that there is a special place in hell reserved for Cortez...

Sometimes you find a treasure on YouTube and yesterday I found this series man what a lucky day :)

The piano intro that you use on all of these seems to compress me with the weight of the humanity that I am about to experience from the great depths of the history you are sharing with us. Thank you. Unlike anything else.

Just signed up as a 'Patrician' member. I'm a pensioner and can't afford much but wanted to send you this as well as a big thank you for what you do. It's like you're an investigative reporter who goes back in time, then returns to regale us with your tales :) I'm always greatly and deeply impressed by the effort and reseach you put into each project and your narration is exceptional. I've listened to every one. (and hope this doesn't offend you but I almost always play one of the podcasts when I get into bed at night.. I marvel at your story telling and find your voice so soothing. Yours are my favourite bedtime stories. Thanks again!
