Dan Carlin Believes That American History Rhymes, Not Repeats
With an increasing amount of polarization and conflict, the 250th anniversary of America has been a cultural flashpoint with high-profile museum openings, big tent attractions, and nation-wide programming meant to bring the country together. But with so much focus on the future of the United States, it’s a perfect opportunity to rewind the clock and ask ourselves: “Have we been through this before?” Dan Carlin, host of Hardcore History, has been doing just that for two decades. His show, known for lengthy episodes that dive deep into world wars and fallen empires, have gained a cult following through his consistency, research, and narration style that brings listeners deep into the recesses of history books and encyclopedias to add an ounce of clarity to our present day. For a special bonus episode of Everybody’s Business, Dan joins co-host Max Chafkin for a conversation about what we can anticipate from America centuries from now, based on the political entities that came before it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
