Absolutely! Reminds me of the Great Philosophers series that ran when I was a kid, but even more interesting. I would certainly not object to more of such content.
I believe Douglas Murray is one of the pre-eminent thinkers of our age. The quality of mind: his analysis and insight are rarely equaled, but even more than that, the quality of who he is as a person is even rarer. At his best, the kinds of questions and problems he takes on, and the vision he's seeking to articulate, don't just illuminate but can inspire hope and courage. I'll repeat my comment on episode 10 that our society needs him to make more of this kind of content.
Encore! I mean, Season 2! As always, thank you for your work, Douglas! I can't express enough how inspiring it is to see someone stand up for historical and journalistic accuracy the way that you do.
Seconded. I really hope Douglas decides to do a Season 2, or else another 10 part youtube series on another topic along the same lines. This has been fascinating.
Thank you Douglas for this absolute treasure of a series. Seeing how busy you've been in the last several months (yes, truthful coverage of the Israel-Hamas War is important - Am Yisrael Chai!), I would still implore you continue "Uncanceled History" (my auto-correct shows the "ll" as wrong, LOL). We in the Western World need to be reminded of the greatness - if not always controversy-free - of the figures and movements that have made the world (not just our corner of it) what it is today. The best of luck and continuing success in all that you do. #Truth
What an engaging ride these last ten episodes have been! We're deeply appreciative of you for delivering this excellent content, Douglas. Thanks a million!!
Enjoyed the series immensely, Douglas - thank you. Looking forward to the next series - with so many other important, and lately controversial, lives to examine. This is a terrific format.
No matter how many interviews I rewatch, books I reread, and articles I re-open - Douglas Murray’s work remains an all-you-dare-eat buffet of brain-enriching food that yields unending nutrition for the mind. And the soul.
This has been a fascinating series about important, real historical matters. This information and mature clear-headed discussions are so much needed in these current times when the mob is so intent on rewriting and cancelling real history. Please do consider creating more episodes! Thank you for your fine work!
I have enjoyed this series. I have learned a lot. It has helped me to listen to conversations about the various topics, instead of arguments and attacks about the topics. I hope you do more episodes!
Sir Douglas Murray what a great gentleman absolutely gem from ETON respect from a working class India man who always been told to read guardian for some reason thanks a lot for all ur you tube content and all the books great knowledge from you sir thanks a lot love to see with sir Andrew roberts thanks a lot
This series is among a handful of truly worthwhile interviews I've had the good fortune of stumbling upon in many, many years. I certainly hope you'll seriously consider putting out another set! I'm terribly grateful that you've shared them.
Thank you for doing this series. I hope, as so many others have said, that there is a second season. I have learned so much! I also loved your conclusion episode.
Thank you so much! If possible, it would be wonderful to have another similar series. I learned a great deal, but I know that I still have a great deal to learn.
Uncanceled History, the type of program that we once took for granted mainly from the BBC that we thought would be produced to the same objective standards forever, how wrong we were!
An important series in so many ways. Thank you! I lived through a period such as this in the late '60s and early '70s. Many of the same arguments were made. The same sine qua non historical figures cast aside like food gone bad in the fridge. Both have features in common - that youthful horror at what humanity is, the misguided belief that you can change what people are, and an inability, born of ignorance, to appreciate moral progress over time.
The joy of Douglas and his rhetoric and i/v with people is how his sweetness comes through. His mother and father, have given him a great heritage, in many ways, but one thing I appreciate is his non-judgemental tolerance and lovely respect. Yet I so appreciate his early days when we saw quite a bit of fury come through: and rightly so, with what he had to deal with.
Thank you, Mr Murray, and all of your interviewees. Such a wonderful series, with intelligent, learned people discussing intelligent subjects intelligently. Not much of that around in today's world. Thank you again so very much.
Just discovered your series. Have only seen a few. Look forward to watching all of them. I hope you do more series like these. So interesting & informative. Thanks Douglas.
Thanks for the great series, Douglas Murray. I learned a lot about the historic people you and your guests covered. The same attack on national heroes has occured with great vitriol in Canada, thanks to the posmodern Left. Our first priminister and Father of Confederation, Sir John A McDonald, has lately had his reputation ruined and his statues vandalized and torn down. Allegedly, he helped set up residential schools for native children back in the 19th century, the result of which is the "cultural genocide" of those children. Also on the chopping block are statues of Captain Cook, Queen Victoria, and Queen Elizabeth.
Brilliant Douglas. Thank you for this incredibly important work. If we cancel people from our history how can we learn from them, their achievements and mistakes. "Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it". - Sir Winston Churchill.
What a series! Thank you! It has been so refreshing to hear the information, but also to realize that some of what I had been seeing and thinking over the past few decades wasn't just me.
THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR AND YOUR GUESTS KNOWLEDGE, I HAVE LEARNED MUCH FROM YOUR PROGRAM. UNCANCELLED HISTORY IS A PERFECT NAME FOR WHAT GOES ON THESE DAYS. THANKS AGAIN DOUGLAS !
One cannot cancel history. We must look back to understand the imperfections, within the realities that took place. We all make mistakes but we also make huge contribution to our societies. These people made huge contributions and no matter what, it cannot be erased, denied nor forgotten. Those that are trying to rewrite history, have a hidden agenda and we must be cautious to not fall into the new group think ! Thank you so much for this series 🙏🏽
Great series. Perhaps Series 2 can include: -Aristotle -The Spartans (their civilization gets a tremendous bad rap in academia) -Themistocles -Fabius -St Augustine -Shakespeare -Edward Jenner -Pope John Paul II -Margaret Thatcher -Donald Trump (who they attempted to cancel in real-time)
Great Series Douglas. Hard to pick a favorite but certainly benefited from US history because we tend to avoid deepening our knowledge on those figures that we take for granted that we know. I really liked the profile of Washington as a man living in a transitional phase where the societal pyramid was giving way to a more egalitarian world. How he felt that in his bones and lived a life in which he succeeded in leading by example. I'm puzzled that the Woke and the Howard Zinns of the world have been so successful in denigrating our history in a massive way. But in every case these people only succeed by omission and even falsification. Finally, I'm concerned that this superficial reading of history as a way to score points will degrade what is certainly the most fascinating element of discoveries of the past: getting a sense of the stakes that were involved, the scale of the human adventure and misadventure. I just read the Rise and Fall of the Third Reich for the second time and still shocked at the scale of manipulation, cruelty, genius and crazy rise to power of one man. If you can't learn from that, you are dead.
Enjoyed the series. It only reinforced already held feelings. 76 I am I’ve read extensively about Western and world history and find it humorous about those who complain about the outcome. Yeah wasn’t perfect but my God it could be such a different world. And not in a good way.
Assumption of moral superiority. Douglas Murray could be the Walter Cronkite of the present age. An excellent anchor and fine conclusion of what he has learned.
Douglas Murray thank you very much for this series, but above all thank you for sharing your views. I am not an historian nor a philosopher. I have studied history mostly on my own because I strongly believed that having a good understanding of history is necessary to have a rightful thought on present days. That led me to have a general interpretation of past and present days opposite to the current "woke" view. This series confirmed that even if alone, I was right on many things...... thank you Please, make a second season!!!
Class act Douglas, you've paired up the right historian with the right figure. We need to stop judging and celebrate the wonderful parts and compare the rest to everybody else. The UK stopped slave trade on the high seas. The USA signed on and stopped all but the Islamic world. Shortly there after, but the east still today . 😎
Carl Sagan called the fallacy of history “temporal chauvinism”. We assume that change over time is “progress”, therefore at any given point in time society is at the “highest” point ever attained.
I think we need to see the alternatives presented side by side with the cancelled. Who is the black equivalent of Abraham Lincoln or Thomas Jefferson? Who is the Aztec equivalent of Christopher Columbus? Who is the Islamic equivalent of William Wilberforce? Who is the Aboriginal equivalent of James Cook? Who is the female equivalent of Albert Einstein or Mozart? What we will see is a litany of people of no real achievement contrasted with the greats of our civilization.
This has been an amazing series. We need it to continue!
Agreed
Indeed yes; always a pleasure to experience Douggies consummate professionalism, and enjoy the learned wisdom of the guest speakers.
Absolutely! Reminds me of the Great Philosophers series that ran when I was a kid, but even more interesting. I would certainly not object to more of such content.
Yes please
Best series, more history from Douglas would be great.
I believe Douglas Murray is one of the pre-eminent thinkers of our age.

At his best, the kinds of questions and problems he takes on, and the vision he's seeking to articulate, don't just illuminate but can inspire hope and courage. I'll repeat my comment on episode 10 that our society needs him to make more of this kind of content.
Steady on mate.
I agree we need more people like him to fight this propaganda which seeks to cheapen Western society and disenchant our youth.
Thank you, Douglas. This series should be required viewing in all American high schools.
Hear-hear!
True
Encore! I mean, Season 2!
As always, thank you for your work, Douglas! I can't express enough how inspiring it is to see someone stand up for historical and journalistic accuracy the way that you do.
Seconded. I really hope Douglas decides to do a Season 2, or else another 10 part youtube series on another topic along the same lines. This has been fascinating.

Thanks Doug for a wonderful series. Mainstream media is bereft and incapable of anything close like this.
Loved this series, Douglas. Please do more!
It has indeed been a pleasure watching this series. If history was discussed this way, there would be so much real knowledge won. Thank you, Douglas!

I'm really sorry it's over. I wish it would continue.
Don’t stop!
It’s been a great series, there must be so many more people who need rehabilitation!
Sir Douglas Murray what a great gentleman absolutely gem from ETON respect from a working class India man who always been told to read guardian for some reason thanks a lot for all ur you tube content and all the books great knowledge from you sir thanks a lot love to see with sir Andrew roberts thanks a lot
Please publish this as an article dear Douglas. Superb.
Douglas, I loved this series and I very much hope you decide to continue it soon.
Thank you Douglas, as a college student I have now truly received a nuanced and truthful history of these important figures
The world needs more of these seasons
This series is among a handful of truly worthwhile interviews I've had the good fortune of stumbling upon in many, many years. I certainly hope you'll seriously consider putting out another set! I'm terribly grateful that you've shared them.
Mr Murray, listening to your interviews with these giants, about giants, made me humble and grateful. Many thanks for filling up my attic.
Thank you for doing this series. I hope, as so many others have said, that there is a second season. I have learned so much! I also loved your conclusion episode.
You are so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
This series was fantastic, I learned a great deal. Please do more Douglas!!
You could deliver 100’s of hours, stunning insight and quality interviews Douglas! 😎🤩👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💥
Thank you so much! If possible, it would be wonderful to have another similar series. I learned a great deal, but I know that I still have a great deal to learn.
Amazing thank you!!!
These were excellent. Hope to see a season 2!

What a great series. Would love it, Douglas, if you would give us more. If not history, how about literature?

His mother and father, have given him a great heritage, in many ways, but one thing I appreciate is his non-judgemental tolerance and lovely respect. Yet I so appreciate his early days when we saw quite a bit of fury come through: and rightly so, with what he had to deal with.

Superb series; thank you sir !
Thank you for this series, Douglas. A remarkable addition to our current conversation.
history covers much more .I d be so pleased to listen to another series. Thank you so much.
Just discovered your series. Have only seen a few. Look forward to watching all of them. I hope you do more series like these. So interesting & informative. Thanks Douglas.
Absolutely brilliant. I hope that you choose to do more mini-series format episodes on other critical topics.
I hope you keep going with Uncanceled History. There is so much more to cover!
Why end it? There's so many issues and topics that need to be talked about in a way you guys do it. Pls more. Season 2.
Incredible series. I have watched each episode multiple times.
Please bring more of these to light. Many thanks.
I’ve loved this Douglas. A real tour de force of expert knowledge.

A lovely series with a series of very engaging historians.

Super stuff, Douglas. I've loved the series and look forward to more in the future ...
THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR AND YOUR GUESTS KNOWLEDGE, I HAVE LEARNED MUCH FROM YOUR PROGRAM.
UNCANCELLED HISTORY IS A PERFECT NAME FOR WHAT GOES ON THESE DAYS.
THANKS AGAIN DOUGLAS !

Totally fantastic series Douglas!! As well as being a great writer and thinker, you are a great interviewer as well! Hoping for a follow up series.
Excellent series. Haven’t listened to them all yet. About half way through. But I will be listening to them all. Thanks.
Brilliant, Mr Murray! Please, sir, may we have some more?
Much the wiser! Sincere thanks to all involved in creating this series.
Amazing focus on history, an excellent series, thank you
Thank you for this series.
I hope you do some more of these one day.
You should continue the series. Season 1, Season 2, Season 3...
More please
Love you, Douglas. Appreciate all your works.
Fantastic! I hope for another series
Great series. Perhaps Series 2 can include:
-Aristotle
-The Spartans (their civilization gets a tremendous bad rap in academia)
-Themistocles
-Fabius
-St Augustine
-Shakespeare
-Edward Jenner
-Pope John Paul II
-Margaret Thatcher
-Donald Trump (who they attempted to cancel in real-time)
Look forward to more videos!
Many thanks for this series, Douglas. It has been a highlight of the previous 10 weeks. Eye opening.
I hope their will be a 2nd season in this.
Such a fabulous series! I'm learning so much, and I thank you. YOU are a great thinker.
Thank you Douglas for this brilliant series
You're a legend Douglas. Keep up the excellent work!
Obrigado Douglas pela sua coragem!
I thought this would be ongoing! Thank-you for the series.
I loved this series so much. Thank you.
Thank you for these sessions. I hope there will be new future ones
Indeed! This is a magisterial series!
Well said and well done!

Oh! I thought this was going to be an ongoing series. I was looking forward to it building over time. Still, fantastic work!
Best pod on the internet!!! You ought to do the Pilgrims at some point.
A very quick 10 hours I might add, great work Douglas ❤
Sad the series is over.
Enjoyed the series. It only reinforced already held feelings. 76 I am I’ve read extensively about Western and world history and find it humorous about those who complain about the outcome. Yeah wasn’t perfect but my God it could be such a different world. And not in a good way.

GREAAAAT series! When do we get the book!? Make the book.
Class act Douglas, you've paired up the right historian with the right figure. We need to stop judging and celebrate the wonderful parts and compare the rest to everybody else. The UK stopped slave trade on the high seas. The USA signed on and stopped all but the Islamic world. Shortly there after, but the east still today . 😎
Really need a season 2 of this…
Stay tuned!
No conclusion, just keep going !!!
Damn, I just discovered this series thinking it would be a new favorite but just realized Murray seems to have permanently concluded it...
I implore you- give us more!
I'd vote for authors, start with Kipling maybe?
Helpful, indeed.
Dougie nails it, as usual.
Thank you
They’ll make a second season right?
Please do more 🙏🇺🇸❤
