I don't think people realized how actually amazing a feat it is that this guy maintains this channel. He releases multiple well researched, well edited, well voice-over'd, multi-hour videos a year. Thats insane

My wife always asks where I learn my “interesting facts” from and it’s honestly just from the first 15 min of your videos before I fall asleep!

Oh my god, this channel is incredible! We get to learn so many things in such a pleasant way.

Absolute quality. Excellent. You should be on TV. ❤

This channel is a gift, dude is a King 🤘🤘

I love your vids, I’m on college taking a few medieval Europe courses and putting these on while I sleep helps me retain the information better. Would love more of this style (maybe something about Charlemagne). Goodnight and Bonne Nuit.

You’re a legend French Whisperer.

come on people let’s get the views up on this one for our boy

In 12 days I have probably watched this 40 times

French Whisperer you're a legend! Thank you !!

thanks whisper, always a treat to enjoy your work.

Thank you so much for the beautiful way that you narrated this part of history. ❤🏵️🙏

This was incredible! You are so talented. Would you ever do a video on Geisha culture? I think that would be epic. Alternatively have you ever studied Carl Jung? I'm a psychologist and would love to hear his biography done by you or a review of his archetypes. Thank you again for all the peace and healing you provide.

I’m rewatching ( and napping!) this after reading Dan Jones’ excellent book “ Crusaders” whilst on holiday in Rhodes.

Your voice is like magic to this weary traveller....never fails to calm, and is interesting enough to capture my interest.

Thank you for your amazing videos, sir. They touch my soul.❤

Thank you for these vids i love them sm 😭😭

A guy who sounds like a shogun reading about medieval europe. Awesome❤

Wow…. Thank you for your beautiful voice!!
