Great series

I've really enjoyed listening to this series. The events highlighted range from famous to obscure and each is illuminating in its own way about the state of the current world.

What’s that noise?

The high pitch squeal in the background (not music) gave me a splitting headache. I loved the story telling.

Disappointed

The story overall was good. The reading was also good.
The sound design was HORRIBLE!!! It ruined everything.
