    Great show for Canadian history fans
    I haven’t come across a ton of shows that cover Canadian history specifically so really appreciate this one. The host Craig Baird is super passionate about the topics covered and it really shows through in the episodes. He’s also a great follow on Twitter, consistently putting out interesting and relevant content. As a Minnesotan that shares a border, I’ve been enjoying learning more about my neighbor

    Essential Listening for North Americans
    I have been a follower, fan, and patron of Craig Baird for about a year to a year and a half now. This podcast as well as his other’s should be essential learning for all North Americans. The facts are presented in a light and inviting way that really allows you to sit back, relax, and learn in a way thats entertaining. A lot of “History Podcasts” have an obvious angle in their development, but Craig is nothing if not fair and honest in his presentations, interviews, and re-tellings. On personal note… Craig, thank you so much for this podcast. As an American living through a pandemic, your voice and the power it has to transport me to your beloved home of Canada has provided many hours of comfort and encouragement. Thank you again for all the content. Once the border re-opens, I look forward to visiting many of the small towns and hamlets you’ve covered in your podcast.

    Wonderful show!
    Craig absolutely knocks it out if the park every time! Great content, not just for Canadians, but like, also for everyone.
  • Kenny Ryan.
    Solid show!
    This show offers great glimpses into moments of history that are really interesting, but might not have all made it into your history textbook. Especially interesting to this American curious about our northern neighbor.
