History Bastion is an educational audio app that teaches money, economics, and investing through history. I built it because no one taught me about money growing up, and I want others to be able to make better quality financial decisions. The app has 100+ episodes and is available on iOS, Android, and the web, with free episodes you can try without paying. I'd love your brutal, honest feedback, especially about what you think could make the app better.

Could you build this?
Partial The app itself is simple to build, but the product is 100+ carefully researched and narrated history episodes, and that content is the hard part.
What it would actually take: The app is a podcast-style audio player with a catalog, offline download, and subscriptions, all standard mobile work. The hard part is producing accurate, engaging, well-produced episodes, which needs historical research, scriptwriting, narration, and audio production. A real version needs sustained content-production capacity and editorial quality control.
