  • Disappointing

    Found myself expecting more out of this podcast considering how many awards I’ve seen it nominated for. I thought it fell a bit flat, episodes felt drawn out and extremely repetitive.

  • Ruined by noisy ads

    The content is great - but when you have multiple jump scares per ep from noisy ads, I’m out.

  • Meh

    The content was obvious and predictable. How long can you stretch out talking about almost nothing? The meaning and impact of monuments upon history spoken from an extreme contemporary point of view just feels a little short sighted, and narcissistic tbh. I thought this was going to be more substantial. Production was good though.

  • Nuanced and so well done

    Every one of the episodes I’ve listened to has been a thoughtful blend of personal and systemic analysis and I’ve learned a ton of untold American history. Major kudos to the Hawaii team especially for their great sound design and expansive vision!
