I really enjoy listening to hardcore history by Dan Carlin. Which is, no surprise, about history:) You could almost forget it's not an audio book from audible but a history podcast

A follow up for people that enjoy hardcore history, would be The History Of Rome by Mike Duncan. All of The History of Rome is available on Youtube, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItwGz43a_ak&list=PLmhKTejvqn...

It's really great that it's on YT because it allows you to listen to the podcast at a faster speed.

If you like Dan Carlin, I would also recommend The British History Podcast[0], an epic more-or-less chronological take on the history of the British Isles. The host can really spin a yarn, and it is taken from primary sources.

Been reading history my whole life and Wrath of the Khans radically changed the way I thought of everything after that.
