I know there’s been a few questions on this so forgive this question.
I love 13 Minutes To The Moon and must have listened to it 5 or 6 times.
Is there anything similar? Not necessarily in terms of subject but in terms of style and depth of knowledge.
Thanks all.
Agreed, it is fascinating.
I have struggled to find a similar podcast but have enjoyed the Chernobyl podcast. If you have seen the HBO series, this podcast tells you how accurate the series was produced and further insights into the disaster.
Have you listened to the Brady Heywood podcast? He’s a forensic engineer & covers in detail historic structural engineering failures amongst other things. He does a detailed series on Apollo 13 too.
Cautionary Tales is good, especially if you go back in time. Some of the recent ones are a bit filler/brief.
Against the Rules, and What Roman Mars Can Learn About Con Law are another two worth starting from the beginning imo.
I love the 20 thousand hertz podcast, but I'm kinda into music and sound design. It's all about sound basically, so the subject is perfect for a podcast.
Cautionary Tales is good
I was going to recommend that one. It's Tim Harford, he also does More or Less on Radio 4.
A Short History Of is another good one.
If you have any interest in the 2nd World War then We have Ways of Making You Talk with Al Murray and James Holland is unmissable.
I've enjoyed quite a few of Dan Snow's History Hit podcasts.
His coverage of the expedition to find Shackleton's Endurance got me hooked.
'Aberfan: Tip Number 7' is excellent, although the subject matter is, at times, just horrific. Really interesting and really well done though.
