This episode takes a look at explorers not the usual fighting and politics. Cook sails to the Pacific Ocean and Bligh is only remembered because of a certain mutiny.
Tony: Enjoying the Navy Royal immensely. Now that I can get outdoors and walk again, your company is most enjoyable + I'm getting smarter. Keep wearing the WB cap. I want feedback from Richmond.
I really enjoy your podcast...I understand that you're not a podcaster by trade so we have be patient with the sporadic nature of these podcasts...but I still wish they came out faster! Keep up the good work!
Hi, I found your podcast recently, and am catching up fast.
I prefer the more narrative episodes, as in your influences on the American constitution and the current Royal Navy series. I found the Battle of Britain series got too bogged down in the day-by-day statistics for my taste.
One nit to pick, if I may. I was astonished to hear in this exploration episode that Batavia was located in the West Indies. As I'm listening in Jakarta (formerly Batavia), I have to tell you it was in the East Indies, now Indonesia.

Per prior question you asked, I agree with proceeding through the Falkland Islands, though I would love a mini-series on the Falkland War itself.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work, much enjoyed.
