About Podmootiun: The Armenian History Podcast

The Armenian History Podcast. Father Tadeos Barseghyan and Peter Hajinian are two friends who found that every time they got together, they’d end up talking about Armenian history. There must be other people that also talk about Armenian history, they said. So they started this podcast. Podmootiun is a pun based on the Armenian word for “history”— “badmutiun.”
