Sometimes the news moves so fast, you have to look closely to know if you’ve seen it before. And that’s what this show is about. Breaking History breaks down the news, by breaking down history. We cover everything from LBJ and the Roman Republic to Donald Trump and the chaos at Columbia. This twice a month show from The Free Press delivers the best historians, authors, and reporters by mining the archives of human experience to figure out the present. George Santayana wrote, “Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” Tune in to Breaking History to resist the repetition.

Something we forgot how to do. Listen and discuss. This series was great. Just one thing was missing. A REAL Discussion at the end. Between j and one or two trans people. Maybe with the help of a mediator or something. I think for us as people or a society it could have been very healing. I had very harsh discussions with friends during Covid. As hard as they were and emotional as I felt back then, I think the discussions were quintessential for me to move forward and understand both sides and seeing a new goal that would benefit both sides.
Excellent and horrifying - a tribute to brave women standing up for women

A great piece of journalism and scholarship, educational, thoughtful, but also reveals the horrors that many brave women are facing in standing up for women’s rights in the face of ignorant, tyrannical bullies. Thank you. All praise to J K Rowling, Kathleen, Maya and many others. I’m with you. Journalism at its best, on one of the most important issues of our time.
Love it!
