Introducing: American History Tellers
Nearly two hundred years after his death, Aaron Burr’s legacy remains hotly debated by historians. After all, he was a hero of the Revolutionary War, served as a United States senator and even vice president. But Burr had his fair share of controversy, killing Alexander Hamilton in a duel, and conspiring to take America’s western front as his own – to rule over like an emperor. On American History Tellers, you’ll learn more about Burr’s desperate power grab, how it was thwarted by President Thomas Jefferson, and how our fledgling democracy endured its first stress test. This is just a preview of American History Tellers.

Introducing: Back Issue
Back Issue is BACK with a brand new season! Back Issue reminisces on moments in pop culture’s past that have shaped our present. Each episode brings personal reflection, incredible guests, and plenty of deep belly laughs. Host Josh Gwynn has invited some very special guest co-hosts to share their perspective on some of the most formative stories in pop culture. We start out with not just another hair story but a conversation about the gendered politics of specific hairstyles as Josh sets out on a mission to get a silk press. We’ll also reflect on iconic award speeches, explore what our brains do on gossip, break down the backstories of Degrassi and Cheetah Girls, decide if Josh should become the next Black ex-pat, and discuss which multi-hyphenate performers are deserving of their flowers.

Homeland | 3
The Department of Homeland Security is responsible for protecting the United States against threats both foreign and domestic.

Boots on the Ground | 2
Many of the men and women who heeded Trump’s call to march on the Capitol on January 6th had one surprising thing in common: nearly 1 in 7 of those charged for crimes related to the insurrection had a background in the military or law-enforcement. Why did the government look away as forces of radicalization spread amongst the military and in the public at large? And how prepared is the government to face that threat as it continues to grow today? Please support us by supporting our sponsors!
