I've come to think of them as audibooks released in several parts over the duration of a year. My personal favourites are the ones on the Mongols and the fall of the Roman Republic.
If you're a history buff you should listen to these podcasts.

Mike Duncan (bio)
Revolutions So far English, French and American Revolution
History of Rome (179 Episodes Complete)

Chris Stewart
History of China (so far 71 episodes and he's only in the year 500 AD)

I'm waiting for the Mongol section which will be told in the Chinese point of view probably.
