  • Love these Historical Flashbacks

    I love learning ND history. Its even better when someone else reads a summarized version to you!

    The Meadowlark tune warms my heart and reminds me of childhood mornings out on the farm with my grandparents. 💕

  • Dakota Delightful

    Glad these amazing tidbits are making the podcast leap! I believe you can also see the entire collection (they’ve been going on for several years) at Prairie Public’s website 😊

    Wide variety of topics covered in “today in history” style 3 minute daily segments. If the one you’re hearing doesn’t grab you, the next one probably will! Petrified men, poisoned pioneers, indigenous rights, socialists, ghost cows... Who knew a state with 3 electoral votes could produce so much history?! ;) :)
