    • We discovered the RCHK podcast at the very beginning of the summer and we can’t get enough! What I thought might be good background noise while running to and from summer activities has become an engaging event that we keep talking about after the story has ended. Thank you, Angela, for keeping History fun and informative! We’re devoted listeners.

    • Our family loves Real Cool History for Kids! This podcast has sparked an interest into history and the greater world from our two girls (6&3), my History Major husband loves the content, and I as mom value the story format presentation, the incredibly thoughtful presentation of difficult events without watering them down or skipping them, and more than anything we both as parents value and appreciate the biblical worldview and truth about humanity and God in every episode. That we can trust Real Cool History to to present man, God, and history so well is an invaluable resource!! We love listening and keep an eye out for every new episode!

    • We found RCHFK a while back and we have loved listening! I enjoy listening with the kids because I always learn something as well! I appreciate so greatly when you tie in stories from the Bible as well and include them in our framework of history! Also, this will be our first year homeschooling and I have used the fact that Angela O’Dell writes my daughter’s new math book to encourage her to get excited about homeschooling! So, thank you for that!!
