I’m midway through and am looking forward to listening to all seasons again. Garrett and everyone on this show have done a real service in providing a narrative pathway to our present moment in America and beyond. The storytelling is worthy of the content. Highly recommend.

Long Shadow gives a thorough look into crucial American political and historical events. As an elder millennial who was privileged enough not to "pay attention" to the politics that shape our current world and the historical events that led us here, I'm grateful for the work Long Lead is doing to educate Americans like me on our own history. Thank you!
