This podcast is well researched and produced. It weaves real classroom lectures and discussions from knowledgeable guests in insightful ways. I rewind often to make certain I understand the history and connections. I have finished one season and am sad that it’s over. It’s addictive learning.
Easily one of the best podcasts I have ever heard. I've relistened to almost every season, trying to internalize the stories and lessons to better understand the world we live in.
For weeks now this has been my favorite podcast! Each season takes on major concepts, from whiteness to patriarchy to capitalism, unpacks key mythologies, and introduces listeners to important counter-narratives and voices. For this immigrant this was an eye-opening introduction to US history in global perspective. I really wish John Biewen and his co-hosts would take on the history and present of fascism with the same admirable rigor and panache!
This was like an engaging and well-researched academic journal come alive. It was amazing to listen to the diverse cast of academics and professionals engaging with the salient topic of what does it mean to be white? My favorite episode was Part 5: Little War on the Prairie. I teared up several times at how connected I felt to the loss and grief. I couldn't recommend this podcast more.
Oh my God!!!!! I am so glad to found this podcast. Everyone in the world who are English speakers need to listen to this podcast especially season 2. My God
