Redacted (verb): censor or obscure for legal or security purposes. [REDACTED] History is a show where we can have real, unfiltered conversations about the things that SOME FOLK don't want us to talk about. This is where we will huddle around the campfire and tell the stories of people that the textbooks forgot. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!

Every episode provides clear, straightforward information on important moments in history, filling in the pieces that always made our typical history lessons feel incomplete and biased.
I always learn something valuable when I listen. This is a podcast that delivers honest information. I’m so grateful redacted history exists!
Thank you!👏👏👏
I love this so I’m giving it 5 stars but the editing can be super awkward which makes it hard to listen to at times. on the new episode about presidents dying, it sounds like you’re at 1.2x speed and you sound more natural (ie compared to other episodes) at 0.9x. In many episodes, after some segments, instead of a natural speaking pause, your voice comes on again almost immediately like you’re interrupting yourself. Please fix because people need to hear these podcasts!!
The world needs this podcast now more than ever. This podcast gives us a clear line from what happened in history to where we are today. I hope it gets spread far and wide.

Episodes consistently explore American history, politics, and culture through a provocative, narrative-driven lens. The show often examines forgotten or contested histories, racial justice, civil rights, and the social and political forces shaping policy and public memory. A standout is the host's strong, opinionated storytelling combined with deep contextual research, cross-episode consistency, and provocative angles that spark debate while educating listeners.
