"Wrath of the Khans"

A thread on a friend's feed reminded me of something I'd been meaning to boost for a while...
A while back I started listening to Dan Carlin's 8+ hour series on the Mongol hordes, "Wrath of the Khans", and was absolutely transfixed through the whole thing. I'm not much of a history person, so I can't vouch for accuracy here, but it's a great combination of what at least appears to be well-researched history combined with excellent storytelling and thought-provoking commentary.
Highly recommended, albeit with the above caveat. If any actual historians on my feed check it out, I'd love to hear what you think from an academic perspective!
It's part of the "Hardcore History" podcast series.
