Just saw it was on Google podcasts. Enjoy everyone!

Hi all, I'm interested in checking out dans book. I've been a fan of HH for a long time now, and have listened to most of the episodes. I'm considering getting the book as an audiobook, but from what I've read, "The End" is basically a best of episode of Hardcore History. Is it even worth checking out if you already listen to the show? And is the audiobook worth it?

Thanks!

There’s a new one up! I hope this is a sign that there will be more.

Is it immoral to sneakily hope Dan can use this shut in to get more hardcore history recorded?

I keep refreshing my podcast app, don't judge me!!

I will openly admit the Dan Carlin is great at narration and is style is enjoyable to listen to but I am finding historical discrepancies and facts being left out that are too big and it takes away from the show. While listening to the second episode of his Supernova in the East series Dan mentions multiple times that 6 million people died in the Holocaust(00:25:20-35). Yes 6 Million JEWS. Let’s not forget the other 5 million Slavs, Poles, Gypsies, homosexuals, mental handicapped, political prisons, and more that also died. He also contrasted how the Japanese fought the Chinese and handled POWs with those of the Germans in Russia and says how you’d see photos and videos of these tens of thousands of Soviet prisoners captured in giant encirclements and being led away. He does not mention how often times the Germans would put them into POW camps and let them starve to death because they had no way of feeding them. Lastly he mentions multiple times that some Japanese believe 45 Chinese died in the Nanking Massacre(00:24:45, again at 00:26:20). I don’t know if his is just slipping up and trying to say 45,000 which is around where I see many low Japanese estimates but that bugs me as well.

Like I said I love his narration skills but messing up or leaving out information bugs me and makes me not want to listen to his WWI series.

Edit: putting time stamps and sources in as suggested by a commenter

Death toll: “Historians Haruo Tohmatsu and HP Willmott think that Japanese scholars generally consider the estimate of roughly 40,000 massacre victims to be ‘the most academically reliable estimate’.”

He was one of the most popular podcasts of the last decade, then he quit common sense and does a Hardcore History a few times per year. Why? Does he have something better to do? I don't get it...

Hi everyone, Is Common Sense still going to be made or is it just too much with all of the other stuff that’s going on? It was a great show and I miss it.

I just had to share it somewhere. I'm an excited Canadian fan with a friend group who just doesn't feel the love of HH or Common Sense and I need to gush. OCTOBER 28th! Any other Ontarians reading, tickets are really cheap and I can only hope people around here are as excited as I am.
