That’s understandable. If audiobooks still dont quite do it for you there are some absolutely fantastic history podcasts out there.
Hardcore History by Dan Carlin is great for deep diving into different topics. His Supernova in the East does an excellent job of explaining things about Imperial Japan and WW2 battles in the Pacific, and his King of Kings is an excellent dive into ancient Persia and the kind of “Hollywood-ization” of the ancient greeks.
Lions Led by Donkeys is a more laid back, but still really insightful military history podcast that not only covers older military examples of poor/crazy leadership at the top (the title being a reference to an observation made about the British by a German general in WWI), but also more modern conflicts spanning the globe too.
There are plenty of others over numerous topics, but i’d be remiss if I didn’t mention both The History of Rome and Revolutions by Mike Duncan. The latter probably being my favorite history podcast so far.
