Which podcast by Nate DiMeo presents short historical stories?

The podcast by Nate DiMeo that presents short historical stories is The Memory Palace.

DiMeo launched The Memory Palace in November 2008 as a history podcast built around concise, atmospheric narratives. Rather than following a conventional lecture format, episodes often focus on an overlooked person, object, event or curious episode from the past, using carefully shaped storytelling to make fragmentary history feel vivid and personal.

The programme has featured subjects including the Cardiff Giant and Acoustic Kitty, a Cold War-era CIA project involving a cat. Its episodes are generally brief, but their compact length is part of the design: music, narration and detail create an impressionistic portrait instead of a long chronological survey.

The Memory Palace has moved between podcast networks. Maximum Fun supported it from 2012 to 2015, and it joined Radiotopia in June 2015. Listeners sometimes confuse it with Lore or Slow Burn because all three tell historical stories, but DiMeo’s show is distinguished by its short, literary, sound-rich approach.
