Revolutions
Mike Duncan·401 episodes
Season 12 premiered October 20, 2024 – a nonfictional account of The Martian Revolution of 2247. Mike Duncan is taking everything he's learned from 12 seasons of historical revolutions - the repeating arcs, characters, ideas, events, and patterns which all revolutions seem to follow - and created a fictional history of the Martian Revolution of 2247. The series is written from the point of view of a historian working hundreds of years after the Martian Revolution and will be presented in the style and format of previous seasons of Revolutions. It will look, sound, and feel like a Mike Duncan history podcast…but will instead be a fict...
Why listen
Mike Duncan spent over a decade narrating the great political revolutions of the modern world one season at a time: the English Civil War, the American Revolution, the French Revolution, the Haitian Revolution, and beyond, each season a complete and deeply researched narrative arc. Duncan treats complex political and social history like a novelist treats plot, tracing how ideals, personalities, and structural forces collide to topple old orders, and by the time you finish a season you understand a revolution the way you understand a book you love. His calm, precise narration is easy to follow on a commute but rewards careful listening with genuine intellectual depth. If you have ever wanted to understand why revolutions happen and what patterns repeat across centuries and continents, this is the most thorough answer in podcast form.
