And his podcast will be successful!

This pod is freaking fantastic! I adore how much they have been saying, “Tuberculosis”. Seriously! As someone who works specifically in the TB field in current times, I can assure not many people ever think or mention TB. The mere mention of it has delighted me and the fact that Norm took time to pronounce it correctly! I have learned so much from you both and your well researched episodes and have had a lot of laughs along the way! Everybody listen already!

I’m not subscribed to the Patreon so I can’t watch the video, but every time Norm plays that YouTube “ding” sound effect, I imagine him quickly turning to the camera with a huge wide eyed smile and a thumbs up

Norman is a good boy! I truly believe this podcast will succeed!! But in all honesty is already is succeeding! Thank you both so much for all the time and passion you put into the podcast. I really think it helps more people than you realize. 🤍

Norm is a good boy and this podcast will succeed! But for real, an enjoyable listen for those interested in historic stories. I really miss LGTC but this has helped take its place. Keep up the awesome work!

I was heartbroken when LGTC ended, but OTP has filled the hole in my cold heart. I have learned so many facts that my ADHD will only retain for a short time, so I can relisten again and again.

I look forward to the episodes every Wednesday (and all the monthly bonus episodes on Patreon) I have learned a lot from An Old Timey Podcast like two things can be true, people are still hunting hitler, and soundboards are criminally underused in other podcasts.

I love the dynamic of this small, sexy independent podcast. Norm and Kristen are such a great couple. This isn't the history you learn in school, but it is the history and hilarity you'll remember.

Normie C is a good boi 11/10

And I think this podcast will succeed!

Kristin is pretty great too! From deep dives to great one-offs, OTP has got you covered! Kristin truly is the Grace Kelly of podcasting, while Norm is the Gene Kelly: she with her class and he with his panache. Seriously probably my favorite podcast. They got me interested in things I didn’t think I could possibly care about (like Daylight Saving Time)! So what are you doing reading this review?!? Pick a topic and start a-listening!

Normie C is a good boy and this podcast will be a success. Kristin makes me laugh with her sarcasm and fake shock and embarrassment from the soundboard. Listening has become a favorite time of the week!

and we believe this podcast will be successful!

Norman is a good boy and this podcast will succeed

And we believe the podcast will succeed :)

Norm is a good boy and I believe he will succeed. (Love Kristin too) :)

Norm is a good boy and I believe this podcast will succeed… no but seriously it’s fabulous. You will learn all about stuff you never knew you cared about. So much context!

And this podcast will succeed!

Norm is a good boy, and we believe this podcast will succeed.

When Kristin wants her vacation in Indiana, reach out and I’ll make sure you have a good time. Normie C should stay home and keep hating us, but I’ll send you some Albanese. Thanks for pointing out us small group in Indiana that stays on Central Time!

When I listen to other podcasts I have to add the sound effects in myself! Bush league!

Rizz means your SEXY I’m 11 and I love you guys so much

I not only have a bumper sticker that proclaims my love, but In an act of true love, I told him about this podcast. Only people who really love their spouses share podcast recommendations.

I need not say more.

LGTC was my gateway drug to An Old Timey Podcast. Naturally, I fell for Norm’s storytelling and sound effects, but my alliance is (and always will be) with Kristin. Norman, do not grow that neck beard. You will look like a chode from the shoulders up. I will be withholding my Patreon membership until you agree to end this charade.

I hate history, but I love listening to this podcast! Norm and Kristin are hilarious. I’m a little obsessed with their sweet relationship and envious of how easily they make each other laugh. I will never admit it to my 7th grade history teacher, but I really enjoy learning about historical characters and events through their lenses!

Kristen and Norm are delightful. Well researched and it keeps my attention whilst scrubbing my house on the weekends. Love the BYE at the end of every episode and would love it more if you brought back Dr.Phil clip too. I can hear about how history really does repeat itself but still chuckle by the end of it. Keep up the good work!

Such a well researched and presented podcast. The hosts are lovely and proper in the right bit of sillies. I love that they choose unique and lesser known tales. Great!

I’ve been down with Kristin (and Norm) since LGTC and was devastated when my favorite podcast ended. However, OTP was born and it does not ever disappoint. I am excited for every deep dive. Kristin and Norm do their research, they listen for mistakes, they look into ideas and take their work seriously. To add humor to such consistently brilliant storytelling is the icing on the cake. Bravo on being my first and second favorite podcasts! ❤️✨

Okay, while that may be a bit extreme, my husband and I have vastly different tastes in podcasts which makes road trips hard. This is the only one we both love! We get to learn and laugh and sometimes even pause it to have our own conversations about the content. Not only are Kristen and Norm excellent researchers, but their delivery and banter is witty and hilarious. If your marriage is on the rocks, give it a listen!

Don’t let the long episodes discourage you, once you start listening you will want them to be longer! Anytime a new episode drops I can’t wait to listen. The hosts have a fantastic dynamic, and they are able to make potentially mundane topics interesting and funny. I would recommend this podcast to anyone wanting to learn about random historical stories while smiling. Thanks Kritsten and Norm, keep it up!

Idk who makes the better couple. Kristen and norm, or norm and that keyboard. Either way, I love the 3 of them

Some people are lonely and need friends, so overvalue the “personality” of podcast hosts. Others lack the attention span to read a book and don’t necessarily have the ability to evaluate the quality of the knowledge provided by a podcast. That’s all understandable. But, even so, it’s still hard to understand why you would listen to this podcast when you could hear actual historians share reliable information on You’re Dead To Me, In Our Time, The Rest is History, etc.?

Simply the best …

I was a LONG time listener of Kristin's old decrepit podcast LGTC and when they were ending it, I thought, "There's no way I'll like a podcast as much as this one." And yet here she is, doing it again! This podcast is so good! Kristin brings her hilarious personality to a new type of podcast that is hilarious and super interesting. Everything this woman touches is gold! Norms ok too. Haha jk jk Norm is great! The banter between the two of them is amazing and one of my favorite things is that you can tell how much they care and love each other which is always fun to see! I look forward to this every week! Thanks for doing such a great job!

I started listening to Kristin’s old, decrepit podcast just before the pandemic when I was a freshman in college beginning my journey to my history degree. By the time the podcast turned, I was starting grad school, and Brandi and Kristin were like my super cool aunts who knew all about true crime and womanhood. When they announced the end of LGTC and the beginning of OTP, I was nervous. Would I be interested in the topics? Would I want to listen to a man talk for hours at a time? It turns out that I enjoy listening to Norm and Kristin talk so much that it doesn’t matter if I care about the topic, and I have no issue listening to Norm because, after all, he is just my de facto uncle. Now as I wrap up my masters and begin my PhD, I cannot get enough of OTP. All my love to Kristin, Norm, and Brandi. <3

This podcast is poppin like a BWD (bubble wrapped dolphin, obviously). Grab your pigs and make that butter. No, I’m not having a stroke, those are things a History Ho would know. Seriously, this podcast has quickly moved to the top of my podcast list. Normstin (Kristorm??) never fail to to put me in a good mood and I also learn things about history that make me exclaim, “how did I never learn that in school?!?!” Then I remember I went to public school in South Carolina and I know why. Whether it’s past presidents, celebrities, or old times crimes, OTP never disappoints and just keeps getting better!

I am loving this new iteration of the Caruso’s! You guys are the best! What I love: the funny, sweet, loving and irreverent (at times) banter. I love Norms sound board—so funny! And of course, I always love Kristen’s take on everything—and her voice…best voice in podcasting.

Well, you do now, kids! I’m a little blue dot living in the southeast corner of the reddest state in the country. I refer to my region as LA, (lower Alabama) and that always gets a chuckle from the out-of-towners. Lame, right? I would like to congratulate you on recently winning a very prestigious made-up award. You are the 2025 recipients of the “Kendell Shows Favorite Podcast” award. Other nominees included My Favorite Murder, Morbid and I Think Not. Congratulations! Since this is a made-up award you receive nothing other than this colorful five star review. If you’re ever in LA, please hit me up. I don’t have a hot tub and there’s no cheesecake factory in my town, but I have the hot take on local shenanigans. Your friend with zero benefits, Kendell Shows PPS-I have many hobbies but my favorite is taunting my husband for loving Survivor so much. PPS-until I followed you on social media I pictured Norm as Jared from Subway.

Love this podcast! Would like an episode on the Dakota 38.

I feel like writing this review is like someone looking over your shoulder while typing since Kristin and Norm read these. I’ve lost all ability to write. This podcast is really good and you’ll love it. I wish my brain would let me write a better review because, again, this podcast is really good. Just listen to it, would ya?! This is the best I’ve got.

I’m not in line at Subway because I listened to the LGTC episode about Jared Fogle but If we listen to each other's an Old Timey Podcast you’ll find never too far apart from the context of the historical story being told to you by a non-threatening boy and the Grace Kelly of podcasting.

This show is preposterously under-researched. It’s amazing people will waste their time listening to two people who have no idea what they’re talking about when there are so many reliable, well crafted history pods where you actually learn something.

It’s history! It’s funny! And yeah, you will hear some added context and “leftist ideas” from time to time. Like, Hitler was a farting freak. If that somehow offends you, sashay away.

Ok Sandwich Artist, sure, I’ll buy 3..But while I have you, can I interest you in a HILARIOUS podcast?! I love history and love to laugh so OTP checks my boxes! If you’re looking for Carlin’s Hardcore History please go away…quickly, like run, now..!Scared of silly thoughts and thoughtful opinions from people who have good hearts?! Run, run, run. Don’t look back!! (They’re really not chasing you that fast.) Howeverrr, if you can take crude jokes and bonkers side-stories while hearing thoroughly researched topics, then you will love this. K & N are both so genuinely funny that the vibe of this show feels like hanging out with weirdly super informative friends. Suspiciously informative, now that I think about it.. 😉I love y’all!!

While mildly funny, the in appropriate connotation they add is spot on. If you want your history to bash conservatives and be full of leftist opinions, then this show is for you.

There’s a new sexiest couple in KC, and it’s …Norstin? Their small, independent podcast, An Old Timey Podcast, is guaranteed to make you sexier, smarter, and more fun at family reunions. Seriously, my son is quite the history buff and now I have something to talk to him about. Thanks OTP! And thanks Norstin!

It’s not often I see a podcast that has amassed so many five star ratings so I decided to give it a try. I started with listening to the first episode about John Brown. I like the humor and I really love the history lesson but there’s quite a bit of redundant humor that unnecessarily lengthens the episode. I’m going to keep listening and hopefully it’s going to even out somewhere down the road!

Take your normal history lesson, but make it SEXYTIMES! I started out a fan of LGTC and I’ll admit I wasn’t sure I’d like this podcast as much. With true crime stories, I was never as interested in the old timey cases. But I did love the episodes with Norm and loved the dynamic between the two. I first got a little intimidated by the 7 part series on Lucille Ball but once I listened to it… I was obsessed! I thought I’d get bored by that many episodes on one person but I could have listened to 20 more by the end. IM OBSESSED! The grace Kelly of podcasting and up and coming novelist, Kristin and her YouTube husband are the best at making history fun

This show is so great and helps you really understand the history happening. Context! Is great!
