👌

One of, if not THE greatest linguistic podcasts ever created. Listening to Mr. Stroud explain the history of English is like listening to a historical novel where "English" is the main character.

I could not give this enough stars.

Thank you, Kevin Stroud, for an Excellent Series

I always look forward to the next episode of Mr. Stroud’s history of the English language.

His material organization is strategic and consistent, his writing is detailed and engaging, and his presentation is clear and interesting.

Thank you for providing such a deep resource into the English language through its evolution across populations in time.
