Founded is a history podcast that takes a look at the stories you missed in history class about the founding of the United States of America. Instead of boring you with dates to memorize, we're digging into the drama of the Founding Fathers because that tea was piping hot before AND after they dumped it into the harbor on that Boston night! There still might be a test though so listen up and learn something but most importantly, let's have fun finding out who FOUNDED the United States of America.Tori Phantom World

I love listening to history podcasts and especially entertaining ones that aren't just dryly reciting dates and names! Tori is a great host and speaker, Gwenna and Tori together are just hilarious!

Great history!

So fun to listen to! My only complaint is that sometimes the volume is to quiet or too loud for one or the other of the hosts, so trying to find a happy medium for volume can be a bit difficult periodically. Still so worth listening to each episode and I'm so excited to continue listening!
