Established in 2024 The Neo Historian is a history book podcast. Each episode we speak with an acclaimed historian about one of their recent books or we deep dive into a classic history book from the archives.
The Neo Historian is hosted by Saleema Adu Smith.

She also holds an MA in Public Relations from the London College of Communication, University of the Arts London. You can read more about some of her research interests here.

A proud polyglot she is happy for you to contact her in English, Akan (Twi), French, German or basic Japanese.
