What was the greatest army of all time? Which U.S. President was the worst? Hardcore History discusses the issues and questions history fans love.

What would Apaches with modern weapons be like? Will our modern civilization ever fall like civilizations from past eras? This is a difficult-to-classify show that has a rather sharp edge. It’s not for everyone. But the innovative style and approach has made "Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History" a New Media hit. Was Alexander the Great as bad a person as Hitler? What was the greatest army of all time? Which U.S. President was the worst?
