I love all your podcasts and am so glad you have returned with new weekly content! This particular one about Masanori Murakami was exceptional. I knew about Murakami-San, but had no idea what all he went through or that he really wanted to play in America. Thanks for another great show!

We absolutely this podcast but it’s a bit different since it came back. It’s not quite the same format of storytelling. Hope it gets back to the way it was. Really disappointed to hear that Sally won’t be narrating some of the episodes now.

Good podcast - enjoy the format.

Yall are back!!! It has been a minute! Y’all are my saving grace! Xoxo

This has got to be one of the most interesting History podcasts available. Love it!

The loud ads for football and other obnoxious ads make this podcast completely unlistenable. Ruined a good thing.

I love this podcast. I’m not sure why the show went away for awhile but I’m so happy you are all back. Thank you for all your hard work!!

I am so excited you are back!!! Seriously, I listened every episode twice! Your team is so incredibly talented! Welcome back! 🫡

Best podcast out there foranyone interested in a broad range of histories

Thankful that this podcast is back. I felt despondent when it ended but didn’t unsubscribe hoping one day it would be back. This is the day when it’s back and I’m looking forward to more seasons full of history lessons that keep is grounded

So happy to have you back!!!!

So excited the podcast is back! I was hoping it would return. My son and I love to listen to it together. Can’t wait to tell him

This is one of my favorite podcasts. Wonderful historical stories told in such a way that I never lose interest! I am thrilled that the podcast is back, and I hope that there are many more seasons to come!

Good to hear Sally Helm again! Looking forward to the new season!

I’m so glad you guys are coming back, this is my favorite historical podcast

So glad to see you’re coming back! This was my middle school son’s go to podcast and we loved listening to it together. Thanks for returning!

I’m glad you’re coming back. I used to start my Monday mornings listening to History this Week.

Stop the cussing please. History does not need people cussing about it

I am only 9 years old but still its very interesting

I’m 14 yrs old and LOVE this podcast.Its like a safe space for me, I love history and the voices and sound effects, the way she talks, everything is perfect. The episodes are all unique and interesting, like the listener is a fish and it’s a hook. I have ADHD and everything on this still keeps me involved. This podcast rlly understands me like no other. SO HAPPY ITS BACK

G

Finally. The easiest way to learn both obscure and well known parts of history with a voice that gently guides you along.

EDIT: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'm so excited for you guys to come back! Absolutely my favorite podcast I've ever listened to. I'm crying happy tears 😭🥰 I absolutely love this podcast. So many different topics. Done so professionally. I have listened to a lot of podcasts in my life and I can honestly say I don’t have one bad thing to note. So, enjoy your break. But please come back when you’re done 😩😩

This podcast not only entertained me during long drives to visit my sick mother, but I also learned so much and fell in love with history! This is hands down my favorite podcast! I’m SO glad this podcast is coming back! The best news ever!

I am so excited to see there’s a new episode. Even though I thoroughly enjoy learning about history, some podcasts can be extremely dry and hard to listen to. So thank you (everyone at history this week) for choosing interesting events and people, but also making it enjoyable.

So Glad to hear that your podcast is coming back Really enjoyed hearing your stories

I am so excited it’s coming back. I’ve been searching for a replacement since it went on pause and haven’t found anything quite as good at telling stories from different periods of history. Really engaging and informative!

This is my favorite podcast to listen to, informative, entertaining and well researched. Missed this podcast so much.

I love this podcast. It’s such an easy listen and has become one of my go to podcasts for work and roadtrips. I love how there are so many different eras of history and they focus on topics that are less talked about.

This podcast can be summed up in 3 words: Entertaining, eclectic, educational. Entertaining above all else. At no point, regardless of the topic, will you be bored. From Sally’s voice/inflection/passion, to the well-informed and enthusiastic guests, you are immediately engrossed. It feels like a warm, comfortable, story time around the campfire every week. The content is so interesting! Eclectic in how many topics it covers. Some topics will, by necessity, be more interesting than others based off of your interests and knowledge. However, you are bound to learn something new, and because it is so entertaining, even if you didn’t know you were interested in a given topic, you WILL BE after hearing the show! You will never think, “oh, we’re hearing about THAT again” because rather than generalities, it focuses on very specific events. Due to this focus on specific events, you will be an educated, better informed, human. They never retread the same, tired, general topics of World War II, or this, or that, which you studied in school, and watched a documentary, and saw a movie... it is FRESH information about various topics spanning hundreds of years, and will make your brain happy :D Most important of all, it effortlessly blends all these elements together, and properly represents what history is all about. Telling OUR story, the story of humanity, imperfect creatures with hopes, desires, and complex motivations. History should NEVER be rote, cold, and treated as though it were a documentation of sterile facts in a vacuum, detached from the very people and world that history is supposed to give a voice.

I loved this podcast, I miss it!

This is a great podcast. I’ve learned things I didn’t even know that I needed to know! I’m hoping you come back for many more seasons to continue to educate us. So much more to know!! Plus, Sally Helm has a great voice that’s easy to listen to Edit 6/21/24- PLEASE COME BACK WITH MORE!!

This podcast is FIRE🔥🔥and I want more of it

This was a tremendously interesting podcast, one of my favorites. Will it be back or is it history?

WHY ARE YOU GONE!!! I loved listening to this podcast at the beach. It was so relaxing and Sally’s voice was so soothing it put me to sleep.

I miss this podcast so much! What happened? It was interesting, well produced, and I used it all the time in my history classes. Any chance it will return?

Keep them coming!

I’m so sad this podcast seems to be over. It was very well done and interesting.

This is my favorite podcast to kick back and relax with. I love History.

Miss this podcast, come back!

Pls make more episodes I love this podcast and it’s easy to fall asleep to

This is a amazing podcast so deep insight please start again

Cannot talk about reconstruction without bringing up Ulysses S Grant’s passage of the 15th Amendment and creation of the Justice Department to wage war against the first Klan who he defeated. Grant’s entire cabinet went to the capital to introduce the Ku Klux Klan of 1871. This war against the Klan was very real and Grant defeated this Klan which was the size of the confederate army. He was the first Civil Rights President. (Cancelled by Lost Cause propaganda)

Please come back 🥲

I look forward to Monday mornings. Please Come Back!!!!

please come back

It is really nice. It makes me fall asleep. It also is really calming but they kind of talk fast. It is really educational too.I LOVE IT!🥳🥰✌🏼🫶🏼

I really hope you guys decide to do more episodes. Your podcast is amazing and essential .

I just heard you mention moms using your podcast to help their babies sleep. Be proud! This insomniac/bedtime worrier has finally found the perfect educational podcast to shut off my racing brain & sleep. No drumming, few explosions & no dramatic war noises… Just History - soothing, interesting (but not “too” interesting) history - so grateful🥱😴🥰

I love this podcast! Please come back!
