Hardcore History is not a standard academic history lecture. Dan Carlin, a former television news reporter and talk radio host, approaches history through the lens of a storyteller and a "fan of history." His style is often described as "gonzo journalism" applied to the past; he focuses on the human condition, the visceral reality of warfare, and the moral complexities of historical figures.
