Does anyone else love learning about history through stories told by a narrator? I always enjoy learning about historical events through stuff like Dan Carlin's podcasts or videos like this: https://youtu.be/VDnKciXrmnc
Anyone know of YouTube channels/podcasts/TV shows that have a similar format? i.e. history told outside of lecture.

History of Rome on youtube is bretty gud. You can also look for books that are in the genre of novelistic non-fiction for a similar vibe.

HI101 podcast is pretty good if that's what you want. It's just a guy casually telling his friends the story of a certain subject. Though, precisely because it's just two friends talking, and not a lecture like Hardcore History or Revolutions, he does make mistakes, very small ones that he then talks about when the audience corrects him. It is a -very- amateur thing, and very noticeable when you listen to them talking about something that you're familiar with.

Trojan War the Podcast is cool.

Shilling for Fall of Rome again. I really like this guy's take on things, and the way he uses mini-biographies of fictional "normal people" to show what life would have been like at various points.
