History on Fire

Daniele Bolelli brings an Italian accent and genuine passion to some of history's most dramatic stories. If Dan Carlin's your thing but you want more frequent episodes, this scratches that itch. Bolelli's background in martial arts and philosophy gives his history a unique physical dimension - when he describes battles, you feel them. His series on the Comanche empire and the Apache wars are standouts. Production has gotten progressively better over the years. Real storytelling with academic rigor underneath.
