The narrator is easy to listen to and there’s so much history packed into each episode. I learn something new with each episode!

Would love to hear other historical stories in this detail and captivating delivery

What a great podcast! I cannot say enough about this show. Thank you so much!

Thanks Dominic! You make cutting edge scholarship understandable and entertaining. Keep up the great work!

I’m currently listening to the episodes about King Tutankhamen. I’m always impressed with the superior job Dominic does with his research and the polished episodes. Keep up the excellent work. The only thing I find missing for this section of the history of Egypt is a clip of Steve Martin’s SNL song “King Tut”. Maybe it’s just a little too politically incorrect, or maybe it’s just way too expensive to air? Or maybe I just haven’t gotten that far in the Tutankhamen episodes yet? But I’m already in Tut’s burial part 2. I don’t know, but I think it would be funnier than the Simpson clips he sometimes adds. I guess I’m giving away my age with this review. lol Once again, thank you Dominic for engaging my mind with a fantastic podcast!!

This podcast is exceptionally researched and beautifully presented. Dominic is easy to listen to and his narration, although quite good from the beginning, has become more confident and companionable over the years. He finds delightful tangential topics for his special and mini-episodes. The original music is unfailingly wonderful and evocative. I like it so much that I’m binging it from the beginning. If you are at all a fan of ancient Egypt, this is more than worth your while. And if you’re not, this podcast will make you one.

I love this podcast with one exception the interview with Chris riggs. This person is more interested in being politically correct than anything else and it is all getting old. If the west is so awful maybe Chris would be happier spreading her tripe in a third world country. Now she is criticizing lawerence of Arabia….its a movie and a very good one. May be a very smart woman but she is also offensive.

I love this podcast. Dominic creates interesting content that puts you right in the time and place.

If you are interested in Egyptian history, I highly recommend this podcast! The creator brings the Egyptian world to life using sound archeological facts and data, and deep study of Egyptological evidence. The creator is a captivating , humorous storyteller who brilliantly weaves the archaeological data into vivid illustrations of Egyptian life and history. I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a big history buff and visited a museum focused on Ancient Egypt and realized I only knew bits and pieces of the civilization’s history. I found this podcast by chance but I’ve gone through 5 episodes in a day! I am loving the storyline threaded through each episode, the very obvious fun Dominic has with the research and production for each episode. I have listened to other historical podcasts and I wish they all could take a similar approach! Some are too boring and lengthy or the host is not as engaging or telling a story about what they’re talking about. Happy to say Dominic has everything I’ve looked for in a historical podcaster!

I’ve loved this podcast so far I’m only on episode two I love this podcast and recommend it to anyone who wants to learn about ancient Egypt mythology

chill and straight facts.

The only reason I’m not giving 5* is not because of the host himself. The show is done well. He tells when he is guessing and when it’s his opinion and gives other opinions on same subject. Very much appreciate that part. However I hate it when people bring their current politics into history. And having the guest Kara. She is supposed to be somebody who speaks about “facts” and logic. However as soon as she brought up climate change and fossil fuels. You would think these kind of people would be smart enough to see through the hoax. Obviously climate changes. Listen to how many times these history podcasts note the change in climate. I can’t take anything she says seriously after that. Skipped the rest of all interviews with her. Nothing she says after that holds any weight. I tried to email this sentiment but tried to make me get on Facebook. I don’t do social media I do real life. Keep up the good work and try not to turn off the audience with current politics of ether side. When they present their politics as fact it destroys credibility

Erudite and beautifully written, but also exciting and wryly hilarious. The music is totally bangin’.

Among, if not, the best history podcasts I’ve listened to. Host is knowledgeable, engaging, and articulate. In the spirit of History of Rome, Byzantium, et al. Overall highly recommend.

May the great creator god, Khnum, fashion wonderful blessings for this podcast, and it’s venerable host.

Nobody does it like Dominic Perry. His expertise is evident, and he deserves enduring success

Dominic is like the cool professor all the students want to have. This podcast is fascinating for any level of history nerd. He is gifted at taking dry, heavy material and making it relatable and understandable to listeners. And I appreciate his touches of humor interjected throughout. I’m a Tudor history buff but this show has me quickly becoming an ancient Egypt one, too.

I regret that I’m catching up to the podcast and can no longer binge on it during my commutes and between meetings. I doubt that you’ll find another where the host brings not only a depth of knowledge, but the willingness to say what can be proven, what can’t be proven and give an opinion on whether they think something is a good assumption or only speculation. All while keeping an open mind that further discoveries may change even what we think we can prove today. I also would like to commend his treatment of Howard Carter and the excavation of Tutankhamen’s tomb. It’s almost unheard of nowadays for anyone to make a clear distinction between a historical figure’s professional work and the morality of the person’s actions when viewed through shifting current attitudes. Like drinking water from from a clear spring.

Fantastic Podcast! Very informative!! Highly recommended!

Laziest attempt at a podcast ever, I wish there was more spent time on information and less time ya know, about you.

Many people have knowledge- but

I absolutely love this pod I listen every single night. Perfectly well done I could listen all day! Thank you Domenic

I will travel to Egypt soon so started to get together all the pieces of knowledge that I have read, listen and study, this podcast is what I was looking for, now everything makes much more sense, great info and very easy to hear and understand a lot of concepts that I didn’t Knew the purpose or intention to be before. THANKS!!!

This podcast is absolutely fabulous. I listen to it every day, at least one episode. I’m working on catching up and Dominic Perry is making it very easy! There is so much information packed into each episode that is so easy to digest while listening. This is one of the most fascinating podcasts I’ve ever been blessed with. I always get a few good laughs during each one. Amazing! Thank you so much!!

Love this podcast - I’ve spent a ton of time trying to wade through history books on Egypt and, while interesting, I find they’re often overly complex and lose me as a reader. This podcast is fun and interesting and makes ancient Egyptian history accesible for listeners! Thanks a ton 🙏

This podcast is amazing! I love listening to it every morning on my commute, I instantly feel like I am traveling to ancient Egypt. The host is wonderful gives so much respect to the history and is so very knowledgeable. A wonderful wonderful podcast!

My wife and I went to Egypt a few months ago but we starting listening to this podcast over a year ago. It was so helpful and the information here is something you won’t read about or even hear from your guides in Egypt. I’ve told everyone about this podcast and we absolutely love this. My father was an Egyptologist and this guy knows his stuff!

I really enjoy this podcast it is very detailed and also fun to hear. I love hearing about history in Egypt and I am half Egyptian so I love learning about my culture. I really recommend this podcast for curios minds or someone who wants to know about history and the present.

I’m grateful to have stumbled upon The History of Egypt podcast earlier this year after a trip to Egypt kindled an interest in the topic. I’m though 72 episodes, and I gotta say: “Well done!” The show is great and an excellent resource for anyone wanting to know more about this fascinating period.

Undertakes the daunting task of telling the history of Egypt, long before the first pyramids were conceived, and building out a picture of a living, breathing society that grew and changed as millennia passed. There's an emphasis on archaeological sites which are explored in detail paired with looks at the daily life of the average person at the time. The host also does a good job of explaining gaps in knowledge and issues with translation and conflicting discoveries.

I listen to this channel everyday, stay-at-home -mom/farm life background. I’ve always adored Egyptology and the perspectives of history shared through Mr. Perry’s dialogue and research. Happily found the podcast and the YouTube channel!

Hope all is going to be ok. Enjoy your pod cast and will be checking in when you get back. Take care.

Since childhood I have been fascinated by ancient Egypt. Nothing I read or watched about ancient Egypt comes close to what Dominic put together in this podcast. How he weaves thousands of years of history and archeology into one captivating human story after another is simply amazing. I always anxiously wait for him to drop his next episode after listening to one.

I will be a Patron. Thanks

Recommendation do a episode about Nefrusobek It IS A GREAT PODCAST I listen to every episode and always smile when a new episode comes out

Great podcast. Love it all.

I have always wanted to go deep into the history of Egypt, but reading Academic books can be hard to get through. Dominic make it entertaining. This is just what I was looking for. Thanks Dominic.

The time and care taken to produce this podcast should not be overlooked. Dominic’s beautifully spoken words and extensively researched information bring ancient Egypt to life in the theater of the mind. I’ve toured the ruins of ancient Egypt and watched many documentaries on the subject. I can honestly say, this podcast is the greatest learning tool I’ve experienced thus far. I highly recommend your listening journey begin with episode one. It will give you a solid foundation as you travel forward through the subsequent episodes. This is one of the few times I’ve been compelled to write a review or contribute to a podcast Patreon page. “Best ______ ever” is an excessively used phrase in our culture today. However, in this case it is warranted. In my opinion, this is the best podcast ever.

Keep up the good work! Thanks to this podcast I endlessly curious about the lives and times of the Ancient Egyptian people. I love the balance between historic / academic detail and the fact that it manages to make such a huge subject accessible and understandable to non-academic listeners like me!

This is a fantastic quality podcast, the guest episodes are great too Love the choice of interstitial music.

There are no words to begin to explain the meaning and value this podcast holds to me personally, spiritually, politically, emotionally, romantically, and even in an abstract way words cannot describe.

I started listening during the pandemic just to give myself something different to focus on. Now when life gets busy I find myself missing the show. I’m thankful that Dominic decided to share his passion for ancient Egypt with the wider world. I was in archaeology undergrad, and while life has pulled me in a different direction, I’m grateful to Dominic and this podcast for helping to reacquaint me with my first love, ancient Egypt. Thank you, Dominic. May Hathor continue to shower you with favor and may you always be found True of Voice -Bethany, KY USA

I don’t have much time to read but I’ve been wanting to learn more about the Egyptians! Thank you so much for creating this podcast!

I adore this podcast, it’s really interesting and I’m able to follow along really well. There’s a plethora of information in here and it’s all worth the listen. I listen every day at work and I’m still not caught up yet but it’s already this good I imagine it just keeps getting better.

Egypt’s ancient history is a fascinating long tale of a changing society and its culture. It’s history is so long that their religion changed the chief deity 4 or 5 times. Even the ancient Egyptians realized that their history was long. I save up episodes so I can listen to 2 to 4 at a time.

This podcast is a “must-listen.” Anyone even remotely interested in history should give this a try. Dominic manages to be an incredibly thorough researcher while also being an imaginative storyteller. The way the information is presented is not only clear and simple but also truly interesting. I’ve just caught up on the current episodes (what a journey!) and am looking forward to more.

So good

Really enjoying this podcast. He has a please voice and nice sense of humor In bringing more than just the facts to life. I’m an academic person, however it’s great to get a humanistic approach to ancient history. This podcast presents more details than the readily available basic info on the ancient Egyptian civilization. Love the musical touches. Highly recommend this if you’re into the ancient societies. Goes well in the suite of history podcasts I follow such as the Ancient World, the Partial Historian s & the Ancient s. Plus our puppy likes listening and going to sleep to this!

Interesting, informative. I love it!
