A few history themed podcasts by conventional historians I found that should be of interest to libertarians:

Frank Varney on general Grant's attempts to manipulate the historical record:

John A. Nagy on mutinies in the Continental Army:

Edward S. Miller on US 'economic warfare' against Japan prior to Pearl Harbour:
http://bobrowen.com/nymas/podcasts/Ed%20Miller%20-%20Bankrupting%20Japan.mp3

They are all from http://bobrowen.com/nymas/podcasts.html where more podcasts can be found.



If you know sources for more history themed podcasts please post them here. Aside from this one I found one with a series on Byzantine history, but it wasn't very good.

Thank you Marko.

Two places to find interviews with historians: one, two

At the first one only a small minority of interviews are with historians, but the ones that are are good. The second one is Russia history related.

"Discussions with historians about their new books"


It is one section of the New Books Network. You have to be selective, but the site looks to be a real gold mine.
