Then radio and television became the center of our worlds. In the late 1990s and early 2000s the internet changed how we got our information.

Firing Line with Margaret HooverConservative writer Andrew Sullivan takes on the ‘cult of social justice’Author and political commentator Andrew Sullivan joins Margaret Hoover for a discussion about what he calls woke "overkill" and "fanaticism" even as he continues to warn about the “crazy cult figure” of Trump.
Sullivan says Republican Glenn Youngkin's defeat of Democrat Terry McAuliffe in the Virginia Governor's race — in which parental choice and critical race theory became flashpoints — put Democrats back “in touch with reality.”
"I think people want race to be treated realistically, but not to define everybody, especially not in this oppressor-oppressed formula," Sullivan says.

The Remedial Herstory PodcastEpisode 24: Well Behaved Women and Early ChristianityThis week, Kelsie and Brooke discuss how women who were well behaved rarely made history-- and then discussed how women joined the early Christian church in big numbers, and examined two women who defied the odds during early Christianity. Perpetua was a Christian martyr who gave her life for the faith before Rome adopted Christianity. Hypatia by contrast, lost her life to a Christian mob that expelled the Jews and Pagans in Alexandria. Their stories are unbelievable and show the centrality of women in history.

We then examine the elections of 1824, 1828, and 1832 to understand the nastiness of those elections and how Jackson's wife and mother were regular targets. Jackson's first cabinet dissolved due to a scandal that revolved around Peggy Eaton, the wife of his Secretary of War. In the second half, we talk about Jackson's legacy of native American...
