Wondery

When protesters descended on the Democratic National Convention in Chicago in 1968, they came to peacefully protest racism, politics and the country’s involvement in Vietnam.

  • As Great as the Film!

    I never thought Aaron Sorkin’s brilliant “Trial of the Chicago Seven” could be topped but this podcast is every bit as fascinating as the film..and even more informative! William Kunstler was a Greenwich Village neighbor of mine that I got to know a bit, walking our dogs in the park and 1968 happened when I was becoming acutely aware of political and social unrest and upheaval as a 12 year old in Texas.

  • Fascinating

    Really good short series. Only exception is if you’re going to “act out” scenes from the story, please hire some actual actors. That part was embarrassing.

They make great content but at times episodes disappear from the food and it never explained (e.g. one on one and Legal Wars). Like business wars one person does all the voices - I can see how they can be irritating to some but I enjoy it. Anyway wondery thank you for this content but don’t act like this is new - I listened to these episodes two years ago. And be more transparent with you... more
