It would be far easier to do this if you provided a link. Though a series in which each episode is four hours long? Without having heard any I'd say that is a bit ecsessive it should not take that long to get your point across.

Found a link for you
Just doing some researching I'd say that he is not exactly neutral he has his own personal views in there. So not what I'd call a neutral analysis. Seems more like his own personal analysis which he appearlty dose say from time to time according to those who have sat through a 4 hour podcast.

Personally my favored history discussion method is talking with a friend or family member about a given topic. I've had discussions go on for days with breaks of course. My way is to read multiple books on a topic then forumlate my own opnion. I can sit and tell you a lot about the battle at Kursk in 1943 but unless you'd read the same material as I had or more you can't know what of what I say is fact and what is opinion.

I'd rather have a discussion with a person who I know has a well read knowledge of a topic and go from there its more interesting to me that type of discussion over a fire side chat where one person is doing all the talking even if they are not trying to come across as the authority.
