Since I’m celebrating English literature and history this month, I’d like to share the British History Podcast with readers who may be interested. This is a long-running and reliable history podcast which updates at least every week,  and is so thorough that after 238 regular episodes (not counting pay-only specials), it has only now reached Alfred the Great.    The host doesn’t just do politics; he often devotes special episodes to Anglo-Saxon economics, or Celtic religion, etc.
