Compelling and Insightful Podcast

After completing the HBO series "The Gilded Age", I wanted to learn more about the time period and found this podcast. I caught up on the entire series in about 2 weeks. Each episode covers a new topic about the era and many of the topics are completely new to me (like trash service - who would have thought that trash service could be interesting?). The guest scholars are interesting and insightful. Michael Patrick Cullinane is amazing. I wish I was able to sit in one of his history classes. I am truly grateful to this podcast for unleashing my inner history nerd!
