      See I don't believe this. I feel like you and every other CZcams creator Is just panhandling to get more money. You're not making as much as you were because they're doing whatever they're doing to add revenues or whatever. But you do have some sponsors in your videos. And you do have people buying your merch and you do have over 10,000 people signed up to your patreon at least a dollar a month which gives you at least $10,000 of income a month. So it sounds like you are just doing what every other CZcamsr is doing griping because you've made a ton of money but you want to make more cuz you don't want the cash cow to stop

    Since I discovered your extraordinary work a few years ago I have never stopped following those more than perfect pieces of history. I am 93 years old, a Belgian who lived in those prewar times and remembers every moment of those years. When I was a child our families and friends had lost a number of soldiers during “the Great War”, three uncles had never come back, uncles and cousins and friends had lost a leg, two arms, their eyesight, etc… . We knew what “war” meant. Then came the war in Finland, the civil war in Spain, Munich, the Anschluss, the Sudetenland, the Rhineland, finally for us May 10 1940. Ten days later the German troops arrived in Brussels. We could not yet imagine what was to come nor how terrible the loss of our Jewish friends, the disappearing of friends who participated In the resistance, the deportation for the Todt organisation would affect our lives for ever. THANK YOU and all of you for everything you give us, from 1918 on, WWII, spies, crimes against humanity, and everything else. I am blessed with a very good memory and thanks to you I can see and hear again all that I lived through in all those years, the more so as all my old friends have disappeared in the last few years and we can no more talk about older times.

What's kept me coming back is the content is both well-researched and well-delivered. I think this month is my one-year anniversary as a Time Ghost Army member and it's been money well-spent.

The production style, team, quality, set changes, and hundreds of other good reasons kept me interested! (where one of those reasons is our shared love for one of The Great Wars most handsome and thickheaded generals; Hötzendorf)

    History isn’t just wars and battles. History is the compendium of not just humanity but of everything.
    History is beyond broad. The future is predicated off the past.
    History to me is the understanding of everything. How we got where we are and by studying history you better have an understanding of where we as a people are going.

      I hold a similar belief- and it is beyond my comprehension everytime I read or hear someone say "why study history?" or "why care about history so much???"
      Usually said in a mocking or joking manner- and trying to explain to them all the insane rambling ideas in my head as to why, what history is and what makes its so important to me, and why it should be important to them- has always been a difficult en-devour but this comment has finally given me a good foundation to work off of next time I encounter the historically inept & ignorant!
      Afterall, we are what we are today and in every passing moment- because of the past and those we decide to try and emulate or our previous former selves!
      So for that, thank you.

    When I heard that you were doing a series on the Korean War, I knew I would be interested. Like his father before him, my father was a "double veteran" -- WWII and Korea, both time USN. While he told many stories about his time in WWII, he only told one story about Korea (which I will put in when appropriate). Other than that ... I knew from my mom to *never* mention MacArthur unless I wanted a spitting tirade and to avoid talking about Korea as much as possible.

He was lauded when he arrived in Melbourne after his escape from the Philippines. However it was discovered that he had no appreciation for the difficulties faced by firstly Australian Army troops and then US Army troops fighting in mountainous jungles of Papua New Guinea.

    That’s me, from the Philippines!!! I’m an avid follower of you, Indy and your crew since 2014. Perhaps you and your crew could conduct a documentary about a topic in the Cold War but only spans four months per topic of the specfic year so that you and the time ghost history channel could stretch out for a “thousand years to come” 😂. For example, the Greek CIvil War (March to Jun, 46) Chinese CIvil War (Jan to April 46) First Indochina War (Dec 46 to March 47), Huk Rebellion (July to Oct 46). Imagine, you could stretch the Time Ghost Channel for the next 50 years 😅😊 But then again, that’s my suggestion.
    I dislike what other youtube channels are doing of just putting an 8 year war into one 20 minute video and using repetitive footages that are not align in the timeline and their info seems to be from Wikipedia or Britannica online but then who am I to judge.
    Nevertheless on what the outcome may be, I will support this channel and your series about the Korean War.

    Im from Hong Kong and grew up in Japan and the United States currently living in England due to the political crisis. I've been following since the great war series and I really appreciate your videos and how unbiased they are. I really enjoy your series and I really learned a lot. I know it took a lot of dedication and effort so allow me to voice my thanks here. I would've loved to see more coverage on the sino Japanese war and the Chinese civil war but I understand that it is quite difficult due to most of the primary sources being in Chinese or japanese. In the future, whilst I know it is relatively unimportant on the grand scheme of things and I don't see myself is being culturally from Hong Kong , I would appreciate a series on Hong Kong, and the Chinese invasion of Tibet and the occupation of Manchuria. The cold war is focused upon the USSR for good reason and people talk about Taiwan a lot, but it would be great to give other ethnic groups oppressed by the Chinese regime to be in the spotlight for once.

    Hello! well I'm just a hotel manager and never got a history degree but have always just craved and loved anything history related. ever since i was a kid i was fascinated with alexander the great then the romans and later modern warfare. But whole Heartly this channel means so much to me. I'll never forget stumbling upon this channel in 2014 where i was just bored one night and decided to look up some videos about World War one and discovered your series starting and right at the Miracle on the Marne. ever since I've been hooked and watched every episode weekly on Saturday morning while i have breakfast. (I'm a Patreon subscriber but had the tradition for three years before discovering the channel and why change tradition?) But being born in 2000 my life has changed drastically since. i was a high school freshman at the beginning not knowing a damn thing about what i wanted to eat in three hours let alone a career in three years and now I'm a college graduate in my apartment still watching the same series religiously ever since. Life has been difficult and challenging but at least I had Indy and Spartacus on Saturdays. Thank you for all the hard work and dedication put over the years to make the absolute greatest World War two and One documentaries on planet earth. (Maybe aliens have some cooler ones idk). Excited for the Korean war series my grandpa gave them hell in Korea. Excited to see what's to come..

    I'm Pole and I'm amazed by this awesome Channel. The work you do is just incredible. I was always espescialy interested of the Eastern Front of WW2. For me one of the favourites features are very detailed maps of the battlefields that shows progress of offensives. And I Iike very much quotes from the books. I never imagined in my life that I would ever get access to such content.

    I've been watching ww2 since 3 or 4 months before barbarossa. Not long after that I also discovered the great war channel so after I caught up with ww2 I went and watched all of ww1. In recent months I have fallen behind because I haven't been watching much YT in general but decided to catch up starting at episode 1. Currently in Feb 1942 and catching up quickly. I absolutely love your work and can't wait to watch your work on the Korean war which I'm sure will be another incredible production. Keep up the good work, love from South Africa.

    Was a Patreon before the WW2 channel started during the first week you guys put out the Cuban Missile Crisis Series and no worries I will be sticking with you guys post WW2. Very excited that you guys picked the Korean War as your next topic.
    I'm particularly hoping you guys do a fair job on MacArthur who has gotten the side of historians post the Korean War. Every historian seems to give the impression that he was nuke obsessed which was not the case at all! He pushed north past the start line of the war with Truman, his administration and the combined chiefs of staff's approval. It was after the war settle in to a dead lock that they start to have issues.
    MacArthur's argument was he was a general in charge of a theater of war and as a general in charge of winning it. But he was forbidden to launch any attacks (even air attacks) against main land China. This is because China itself, said it was not in the war (which is BS). They said the Chinese fighting in Korea in Chinese uniforms, with Chinese weapons, under Chinese ranked officers were all volunteers (SMH). MacArthur in my option was correct in saying it was dumb to let China off the hook. He didn't even want to attack China with nukes at that point. He just wanted to bomb their supply lines and threatened them with an invasion from the Taiwan. A reasonable strategy. But the Truman administration fasly (in hindsight) thought this would lead to WW3. The Truman administration just want MacArthur to defend in the area of the starting position until a peace could be declared. It was AFTER all of MacArthur's other ideas on how the United Nations could win the war that he said he wanted to use nukes within Korea that he was relieved of duty.
    Lastly though, realistlicy, if the West ever wanted to win WW3, that was the point to do it. The USSR only had between 2-9 nukes during the Korean war according to the post Cold War Russian records and had no planes that could even lift and drop their nukes until 1952 and not in numbers until years after that. So if the West was ever to go into WW2 at the biggest advantage it could have it would have been between 1945-52 (maybe 55).

    I'm still a proud contributor. Ever since you started this channel I have realized the importance of your efforts. Someone HAS to tell the whole, total, real story. Kids only get to gloss over WWII history in school these days. And i bet all those photos are blurred, right?

  • @SuperTamaru
    @SuperTamaru Před 2 měsíci +3

    I'm not sure if anyone's said anything like this before, but here we go: The work you do at TimeGhost has been an excellent archive of the deadliest, most horrible conflicts in human history. History that many would want to twist and revise to their own benefit. Your entire project has been a *huge* counterweight to malicious propaganda which permeate contemporary societies (at the time of writing) and this format you are using are also very good from an educational standpoint; I'd like to see your work being presented in schooling environments because you are putting a lot of effort into making sure that political stances other than the denouncing of violence against humanity, societies, and such (and even then, history is never without politics anyhow, but I digress). You're doing a stellar job, and I've been following your work since the middle of the Great War.
    Please continue as much as you are able, you are doing something incredibly worthwhile and accessible.
    As for the future; I'd like to see a series about the events in south america during the 1950s to the 1970's or 1980's, as there are a lot of important information that needs to be highlighted from that region during that period, given how many democracies were forcefully dismantled in military juntas, which has repercussions to this day.

    I have no doubt that the Korean war will be just as good the WW2 series but I hope that I will find enough time to finally watch the Great War series too.
    My English wasn't that good back in 2014-16 and until I rediscovered the channel again, the war was already nearly over.
    Now I have watched every single video from this channel and looking back on it, I am surprised that some episodes on the Great War channel didn't even reach the 10 minute mark while you guys now hammer out one long "extra special episode" after the other.
    The entire Time Ghost team is doing a phenomenal job and deserves nothing but praise.
    And financial help as well as a good chunk of people who share and comment on your great content :D

I'll admit Ive only watched a small portion of the total videos, but they're so accessible to the common viewer, I want to say how much I appreciate that. Your videos are interesting, captivated, with video footage from the events along with your own imagery to help illustrate things like maps. Im 22, and I can say that a lot of people my age are familiar with your videos and love them a ton. They make great education but also entertainment, and I honestly find them a much superior alternative to the college education I'm completing this year!

    I started watching these series at the end of 2020, and have been doing my best to catch up this entire time. Starting with the first episode of the great war you did for 1914, in the last three+ years of watching, I have managed to catch up to April 1944, still a full year behind the live content. The amount of content I have consumed in the last three years from this channel and The Great War channel feels staggering. I had hoped to catch up to VE day in 1945, hell I wanted to catch up to watch the D-Day special live, but catch up I will for the Korean war at some point! Thank you Indy!
