Led by noted historian and humanities scholar Clay Jenkinson, Listening to America travels the country’s less visited byways, from national parks and forests ... more

  • Life enhancing podcast

    In an age of low information voters, rudeness and ridicule online (and in government) this podcast is a wonderful and refreshing reminder of the true meaning of public discourse. Mr. Jenkinson is absurdly smart, educated and a fantastic speaker, yet is quite humorous and easy going with a good dose of self deprecating humor. As if all this wasn't enough the honest and transparent exploration into the endless contradictions of one of history's most important figures is truly fascinating. My only ... more

  • The DNC Must Love This Podcasr

    I originally started following this podcast because I was looking for something historical that was neutral politically. I thought initially that I had found it here but I was wrong. Jenkinson complains about how partisan America has become and then proceeds to contribute that mess with his left wing pontificating. When the focus of the show was Jefferson and Adams and the founding fathers it was interesting but now it’s become unbearable. If you’re liberal you’ll love it so enjoy. For me... more

  • Yikes

    For context I’m about as far left as you can get, and have been a fan since stumbling onto this show circa 2010-2011. I just heard a guest say, almost in the same breath that: young people often don’t know history as well as they think, when they do know history it’s often over-simplistic and unaware or ignoring nuance and complexity, and then said that young people don’t realize that one can hold two conflicting views at the same like (I’m paraphrasing) “hamas’s attack on Israel was vile and ho... more

  • Jefferson, not Jenkinson

    Great show with a unique idea - what would Jefferson say/do. Then for some reason the portrayer of Jefferson thought the listener tuned in for him and not the 3rd president. This is not what made the podcast unique, enjoyable, successful…I think even Jefferson would agree this was a bad decision.

  • What do you mean leftist?

    The people give minimal stars to this show because of its supposed leftist views are plain stupid. Uninformed. Ignorant. Completely devoid of any semblance of a complex thought. I urge the listeners here to crack open a book from time to time, too much social media and local news seem to have warped their already delicate minds. Do yourself and society a favor and learn something. Stop listening to stories from your Confederate-sympathizing grandpa.
