Who am I?

I’m a history nerd who loves talking about history and interviewing authors/podcasters to highlight their stories. I want to bring notice to podcasters who started from nothing and have to work that much harder to get noticed and get downloads.

My Show

What is my podcast about and/or how does it relate to the playlist topic you chose?

I interview authors and podcasters so I can find out who they are, what drives them, and then hear the stories they choose to tell.

What is my podcast playlist about?

This is about podcasts who do it from scratch. They don’t have a huge fan base to pull from so they need to grow on their own merits and not on things they’ve done before.

The podcasts I picked and why

1. Dirty Sexy History

Why this podcast?

Jess is one of the smartest and hardest working people out there. She does the work herself and provides amazing historical insights.

I'm TK, your guide to the past as we uncover the people, events, and little-known-facts hidden in the shadows of your old history textbooks. From empress baddies to activist profiles, turkey gods and the history of the toothbrush, tattoos, Pompeii peepees, and everything in between, you can find it all here. There is no telling how far we'll dig or how many "historical facts" we'll reexamine. No event too small and no topic too big, because this is For The Love of History.
