This is my favorite audio channel period, better than any podcast or other historical documentaries. I will often go to bed listening to these as they are calming, then relisten while working because I want to hear the info. I relisten to older ones to relax before sleeping. It's better then starting at a screen, and the narrator's voice is even and calming.

Whenever I see you post a new thing, I stop whatever I'm doing and listen. This even goes for the videos, re-watching content I've already listened to before.

The respect for Mesopotamian Civilization in recent times by different content providers makes me happy and proud of the civilizations we once had in Iraq. Your content in particular is very well thought of, researched, and even brought me to tears (The Sumerians). The troubles of recent times have prompted myself to read more about my culture and all the great civilizations that came through and my appreciation for history as a result has vastly increased. I will definitely be enjoying this new edition of FoC. I hope you consider the Akkadians as well in future times as they have set the blueprint for future empires to come on running a large empire. Thanks for the hard work as it is really hard to imagine this kind of content is free!

I thought I was hallucinating when I saw this. I'm glad I wasn't! The Assyrian empire is such an under rated topic.

I get chills when he says "what in all the world could have happened to them?" This is without a doubt one of the best history podcasts ever.

I thought literally an hour ago, that it'd be extremely cool to get a new FoC episode soon. Thank you, I really admire your work.

Mr. Cooper. Your podcasts are amazing. I am touched by history of every civilization you told us about. I literally cried when the Sumerians had to leave their cities to survive. It was devastating.

I am legit surprised every time I see anything on YouTube talking about the ancient near east that doesn't center around ancient freaking alien theories. Thank you! You're up there with Dan Carlin and Mike Duncan!

Thank the Gods!!! I'm addicted to your pod casts. I can't get enough of your voice. It's soothing like David Attenborough. Thank you for all the research you do to put these together so eloquently.
