7.9 Selma Burke

A podcast that explains history the way you wish your teacher had, with the help of sarcasm and coffee!

I found this podcast on Stitcher but can’t write a review there—I need to tell you how much I love this podcast! A lot of history podcasts are too focused on humor and entertainment—you can tell the host here focuses on quality information first. Which I appreciate :) definitely still very entertaining! Like the podcast Queens’ slightly more serious sister. Highly recommend.

Excellent history pod

This podcast pulled me into something other than American history—our articulate host provides a specific and sassy rundown of these great historical figures. Well done!

Great podcast! Get on it y’all.
