#11 - Andrew Hunt - A Future Decided by the Past Thought Process

    • Society & Culture

Andrew Hunt is a Professor of History at the University of Waterloo, specializing in Modern US Cultural and Social History, and an author. Pop culture is an excellent window into the hearts and minds of a population – from understanding sentiments around a war, to gauging the strength of the culture as a whole. Fortunately, Andrew is a lifelong historian who has read, written, and taught about all things US Culture, publishing several books that span the Korean and Cold Wars.

Expect to learn how the US can solve the growing political rift between the Right and Left, how we can forge a path forward into the future by looking to the past, why the Vietnam War was such a watershed moment for US culture, what Mr. Beast videos can tell us about the future of Hollywood's influence on culture, how Andrew found himself getting arrested in Utah, and much more...
