How is Behind the Bastards? (hexbear.net)

I'm about halfway done with the last season of the Revolutions podcast and up to date with Blowback. I'm probably going to be looking for another fun history podcast to listen to soon to throw into my rotation with The Dollop, to break up the pop culture, comedy, or news podcasts.

I recently listened to the Kissinger episodes of Behind the Bastards and they seemed pretty informative and funny. Also apparently it's by some old Cracked people, and I'm a fan of all those old Cracked content creators. But the first episode says it's about Stalin, so I'm guessing it's like in the progressive but lib direction? I don't mind, just want peoples thoughts on it before I decide to start or look for something else. How is it for people who have listened to it?

Worst part of the novel episodes is how little they get into the books. I wanna know how terrible they get past the 2nd or 3rd chapters.

Would probably be a good podcast on its own

But that would require a degree of effort
