Scottish history - podcasts or audio books

I like this eclectic podcast although it is not precisely what you are looking for and may not as a result be of interest to you. Nevertheless some of the episodes do have an historic theme and may provide interesting background listening

I also enjoy Under the Tartan Sky, but it's not exactly historical. There's a new podcast I stumbled onto that is historical, but more obscure or odd historical events that happened in Scotland. It's simply called "Scotland", by Be Quiet Media. Only has 9 episodes out so far.

sownack, that's not quite what I'm aiming for, but there are definitely some episodes that are interesting. Thank you!

Dave, I've actually listened to about 2/3 of the "Scotland" episodes and I genuinely, strongly dislike it. It seems to be focused more on drama and entertainment than anything else. The narrator will fill a scene with so much drama via tone and cadence, and then break into a commercial/break and speak normally. The production quality is quite good, but it's just not for me.

However, thank you for taking the time to respond!

stephenkirsh, I did warn you!

Perhaps you need to put this question out on Trip Advisor to get more responses.

Or if you are on Facebook there is a very good group called the Scottish Travel Society which you could join and ask the same question. The members there might be able to make some suggestions.

Hey, if I hadn't posted a question here, I wouldn't have heard of your recommendations, so thanks! I'll give the FB group a try.
