Reel History is a history podcast hosted by Shows What You Know. It has 54 episodes, with the latest published January 2026.

Welcome to Reel History! On this podcast we talk about historical movies and TV, anything that claims to be based on a true story, and we check – how bad did they mess it up? What was life actually like during that time period? That’s why we’re here – to separate the real history from the Reel History! Hosted by two Irish history buffs and a Swedish guy who doesn’t know anything about history. Part of the Shows What You Know network; find all our podcasts at ShowsWhatYouKnow.com. Cover art by Kim Boland. Follow us @Reel_History and don’t forget to rate and review!
