Great podcast

I love history podcasts and listen to them daily. They make tasks go by so much faster. I have been especially enjoying 1001 podcasts recently because Mr H has been diligent about steering clear of current politics! Thank you! I appreciate so much that you state facts. Period. And let the listener decide what their opinions will be. Keep up the good work!

Amazing - Like My Grandfather Telling Me Stories

No offense meant by the title but that’s how this show feels like. I look forward to all of your shows. Thanks John!!

Branching out

I have listened to all of the HLMH episodes and very much look forward to the new episodes. While waiting for the next episode, I tried some of the classic stories and got hooked on those too. Quality story telling works across a myriad of topics and John Proves that with all of his podcasts! Great job and keep them coming.

Fantastic, plowing through all these episodes.

What took me so long to find this? Great and varied topics, with awesome delivery. The thing I like most is that you can tell that Jon has a real interest in the stories, and is thrilled to be sharing them with us. Love it and have been telling all my friends. Thank you, Robert Hammond

One of my favorite podcasts!

I listen to a variety of podcasts, and the 1001 family of podcasts rank as my most-listened to. It all started here with 1001 Heroes... Many of the stories gain my interest by title alone. And many times the stories are ones I want to get to the bottom of- even if I did not know about it before listening. Jon Hagadorn is very easy to listen to, and the podcast is always informative. Great for medium to long car rides.

Passionate

This is what I consider a real, pure, and passionate podcast done by an individual who loves to read. He has great taste is his selection of authors. He reminds me of Peter Falk reading to his grandson in the movie Princess Bride.

Excellent!!

I’ve been listening to all of the 1001 podcasts for close to a year, they’ve become my go-to anytime I can sneak away. I’m partial to the “Heroes” series & have broadened my knowledge immensely. Mr. Hagadorn does such a great job in sharing his research on a variety of subjects. You’ll come to look forward to Sunday nights, the sound of his voice, and new adventures! Thank you for your hard work.

On Wisconsin!

Love your podcasts!! Always enjoy them. However, in the most recent one about the Mines you mentioned that Geronimo called Annie Oakley Little Miss Sureshot, I believe that was Sitting Bull of the Hunkpapas.

Makes the day, less mundane.

I work waste disposal, and when I’m in the frigid weather and getting soaked, your podcast takes my mind, to a place in history, where I can’t feel the muscle aches and cold. Thank you.

Music bed

Love this podcast but not crazy about the background music selections during Jon's narration. Need less intrusive choices or none at all. I really did not want to complain because of my appreciation for the hours and hours of listening enjoyment this show has given me. Just a little constructive criticism. Keep 'em coming please.

Educational and interesting

This podcast has a lot of facts, mysteries and ideas that are little known and I would recommend this to a lot of young people who I thing should here this over the secular version of it

Great alternative

I love history podcast and I’m a big Dan Carlin fan. Those are awesome deep dives into every aspect of a topic. This podcast is like having a friend say “have you ever heard this story?” I love that I can listen to so many different stories I didn’t really know about. He has also made me search for more information on a topic. I have been listening for a week straight. Great stuff.

1001 Heroes is the Gold standard

Jon Hagadorn’s story telling abilities are unparalleled. He has a way of making you feel you are in the same room with the protagonist. Each podcast is consistently excellent but the stories of Joan of Ark and later Eugene Bullard were so good I was on the edge of my seat! This is the Gold standard of adventure podcasting.

Doesn’t get better than Johns podcasts

The consistent quality of Histories and mysteries has long been a gold standard for me when selecting other podcasts for my library. Hence the compact size of my library!! Thanks so much for all your work. Mainer Dave

Outstanding storyteller!!

He does his homework and gets the facts from multiple sources. I travel a lot for work so I try to download the stories that pertain to the area that I’ll be. I love them all!! He has a great voice and I enjoy hearing his input on certain things when he offers his point of view. He does try to stay as impartial as possible, which I really appreciate. Great work!!🐾

Fascinating History

One of the best historical podcasts. Interesting unique subjects.

Just the facts, ma’am

I love the way you can hear his enthusiasm for the subject through the airways. Still, he presents the facts, straight forward, as they happened. If he has an opinion, he will state it as such, which allows you to take that part or leave. As for the review that didn’t like any ads, which is most likely everone, I have a handy dandy volume control on the side of my device, it works so much better than complaining-just saying.

Fantastic

Just listened to all three of the Battle of Little Bighorn episodes and thoroughly enjoyed them. It’s apparent the host has a great grasp of the material, and he knows how to relate it in a compelling way. Well done.

Not interested!!

These are some things that I care not a wit: UFO stories. Baseball stories. Obscure Naval battles. These are the things I have thoroughly enjoyed on this podcast: UFO stories. Baseball stories. Obscure Naval battles. I have been dragged, unwillingly mind you, into broadening the depth of my character. Thanks John for the great job. I came for the Classic Short Stories and stayed for Shoeless Joe. Who woulda thunk it?
