  • Wow.

    Like others, I was educated in the deep (deep) south and this podcast has helped me learn so much of what was missing from our lessons. I’m embarrassed to say there are so many topics I haven’t even heard of BUT I’m thankful for André for teaching me what should have been taught a long time ago.

    Committed to teaching my children redacted history!
