For our 200th episode – we inerview Professor Greg Jackson—host of the podcast History That Doesn’t Suck podcast!!
He talks about his upcoming book Been There, Done That: How Our History Shows What We Can Overcome.
Greg argues today’s hyper-partisan media, gridlock, and political violence have clear precedents in U.S. history, from the 1790s newspaper wars to violent conflicts like the caning of Charles Sumner and the Baltimore riots. The book is a fascinating look at history and explanation of how we made it through those times…and showing how we can do the same today.
You’re going to enjoy this one.
