Apple Announces 2025 Podcast of the Year

Apple today announced that The Rest Is History has received the 2025 Apple Podcasts Award for Show of the Year for its high quality and cultural impact.

Launched in 2020, The Rest Is History is a history podcast hosted by witty British historians Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook. It explores historical events, ranging from the rise and fall of the Roman Empire to the sinking of the Titanic.

'The Rest Is History does a phenomenal job in taking a subject as vast as human history and captivating a global audience,' said Oliver Schusser, vice president of Apple Podcasts, Apple Music, Apple Sports, and Beats. 'Tom and Dominic have created something special that represents the very best of what's possible with podcasting — it's educational, it's hilarious, and it has fostered a true sense of community.'

'We don't moralize, we don't judge the past, and we approach it in a spirit of real enthusiasm,' said Sandbrook. 'We don't look down on people in the past. We just try to enjoy it, to relish the madness, the bonkers-ness of people.'
