What does /his/ think of Hardcore Histories? I recently discovered it and heard a couple of Dan's shows, and I really liked them.
Nevertheless, I just made my way through some of the older episodes and they just seem haphazard or insane. As in, I kinda feel like I could've done better with no preparation. Besides that what really made me lose respect for him was when he started talking about X-history and aliens influencing our politics, crap like that, he really sounds like Alex Jones there.
Is he salvageable, as long as I don't pay attention to his older shows or listen to anything related to aliens, or is he a massive waste of time?
its alright if you just take it as entertainment. if listen to them to be informed, you are doing yourself a disservice.
Very comfy episodes. Can't think of any other podcast that can compare.
He gets so much wrong, and inserts so much of his own 21st centural liberal ideology into places it doesnt make sense. He's not very astute or insightful ( or even very well read, he mostly just receruits help from others to write for him), but I admire the effort he puts in.
Listen to Great Courses lectures instead. Yes, they are easily pirated.

OP here, "the history of rome" podcast by Mike Duncan is MUCH better researched and seems to be fairly unbiased.

Indeed that is another good podcast, but it's only about the Roman Empire, what I meant was that I haven't found any podcasts like Hardcore History that focuses on different events, does series, several hour long shows.
