Most documentaries never discuss what the peoples ate. You not only covered the foods they consumed but how it was prepared. Thank you for this excellent series.

I love that Cortes asked the Tlaxcalans for 4,000 warriors and they sent him 20 turkeys. I love stories from centuries ago of people being sassy, to know that that impulse has been around for as long as human culture itself.

''Instead, they sent him twenty turkeys, as a gift.''
Brilliant, imagine CortƩz' reaction.

In today's age, the ability to grasp someone's undivided attention for 3+ hours is a remarkable feat. Amazing content, never stop setting the bar so high; thank you.

Your seamless blend of art, poetry, and historic facts makes your documentaries so poignant and visceral. You bring the amazing Aztec city to life with such depth and emotion that the audience can sense the humidity of the lake air, feel the beat of the war drums in their chest, and smell the smoke from the smoldering buildings. All your videos and podcasts are absolutely amazing. Please keep up the incredible work!

It makes me so sad they destroyed the city of TenochtitlƔn, what a joy it would be to walk through there like we can places like Pompei.

I came home after a long exhausting day of work then fell asleep watching a video about insane car crashes and woke up to the beginning of a Aztec documentary and actually watched the whole documentary. I didn't expect to be educated but I'm grateful thank you.

The best and most extensive documentary on this entire subject that there is. This should be shown in schools and uniās. Unreal work here, I enjoyed every second of it. Thank you.

I honestly think this is one if the saddest things I've ever heard. Thank you so much for posting, you've made the Aztecs really come alive for me.

Everything about this documentary puts the History Channel to shame. The visuals, narration and narrative weaved through the story, the detail, simply everything is great. I hope you expand your channel and and its success.

My 3 main takeaways from this series, and Iāve watched all but one, is that every single empire since the dawn of agriculture was insanely violent, slavery was ubiquitous, and competent leadership was rare.
Also thank you for producing these. Truly exquisite work.

Smallpox has since been eradicated, but I fear that other ailment the 'disease of the heart that can only be cured with gold' will never go away.

You have a way of painting with words. The writer immerses the listener in a long lost world, feeding us nuggets of truth while doing so. Absolutely amazingly, enlightening & entertaining.

I've never in my life listened to 2 and half hours of lecture while in Uni. But i stayed up all night listening to this. It's like watching a movie with you as the director telling the actors in your mind how to play out the scenes according to the narration. Amazing experience, learning and enjoying at the same time. Wonderful piece of work! Bravo!

This is definitely the best documentary about the Aztecs that I've ever seen, and I thought I knew the basics, but knew nothing at all.
I could almost feel the sadness of those who lived to see their civilization and way of life to be torn appart so fast and so cruelly.
Even for our middle ages standards what happened was outrageous, and thus Cortes's end was not by chance.
I can only imagine what could we have benefited today if these civilizations weren't razed and had a chance to have contributed to our life today with their knowledge.

With utmost respect: the narrator knows how to tell a story.

This series of documentaries/ podcasts are probably the best Iāve heard or seen, regardless of genre or subject. The makers and contributors to them should be extremely proud. Thank you šš»

I have seen many documentaries about the Aztecs and this is by far the best one that has ever been done, It's like getting into a DeLorean and traveling to the past, Just excellent work done on this documentary by everyone involved in making it.
Thank you.šš¼

One thing that is unknown outside of Mexican scholars is that the Tlaxcala & other allied chieftains became vassals to the Spanish Crown. They weren't subjects as slaves but noblemen of high rank with their own coat of arms & titles. The vassal status changed when Mexico became an independent country & took away the indigenous rights granted by the Spanish Crown.

As a Mexican, I must say this is hands down some of the best storytelling regarding our country's history. Congratulations and keep up the amazing work.
