Looking forward to this, starting today. Really hope it lives up to expectation by bringing something new and well considered.

Will anyone else be listening?

Annoyingly I can’t listen as this is being broadcast. Will have to hear later.

Thanks for sharing. I didn't know about this, so I'll be sure to have a listen.

Ooh, thanks for sharing. I will try and listen. I'm terrible at podcasts generally, but sometimes can get them on in the car which works well. I'd be particularly interested in the one re recent history and the future.

I've been listening, and am a bit disappointed that the narrator has gone down the route of black/ all people came from apes. I found the first one podcast / episode less palatable than the later ones.

Need to listen to the final episodes, but can't help but think that it may have been written by African historians, but it definitely has identified its target demographics.

Thanks for reminding me, @HorribleHisTories15.

Anything by the BBC is always a risk for that.
