Welcome to the Ministry of History Podcast (formerly The History Buff), where we bring history to life through immersive storytelling and deep dives into fascinating historical topics. Hosted by Artie, the Minister of History and a Berlin-based historian and tour guide, the podcast unravels the complexities, drama, and humanity of history—from pivotal moments to hidden forgotten stories. Whether you're a casual listener or a history buff, join us to explore the events, people, and cultures that shaped our world.

There are two formats of episodes:

Solo episodes (up to 20 mins)
Discussions or interviews (up to one hour)
