What is the consensus here on this lad?

He's great.
Gets carried away in the storytelling, sometimes exaggerates or embellishes.
You could do a lot worse but as always it's better to read an academic journal or peer-reviewed history book.
Like he repeatedly states: he's not an historian; he's an enthusiast. A good entertaining overview of stuff, and then check out his bibliography if you're interested in the topic and want more scholarly take.

I could listen to King of Kings ah-geen and ah-geen and ah-geeeeeen
>>2649082
yeah, he really brings this stuff to life, and makes it very compelling
maybe it's not as accurate as it would be otherwise, but it's great to listen to

>mfw reading about Magellan and getting caught up in the whole story and thinking how great of a movie this would be
Maybe there's a good dramatization out there.

>King of Kings
I didn't find it very entertaining. Is there something wrong with me? I thoroughly enjoyed khans and blueprint

No. Not everyone is interested in the same things.
