History Civilization

7 of 132 long-form episodes

History told for sleep works best as texture rather than dates: what a place smelled like, how a thing was built, what people believed while they were building it. These episodes move through ancient engineering, lost knowledge and the long slow accumulation of ideas that produced the modern world. No exam at the end. Just a long walk through a period, at the pace of someone with nowhere to be.
