History Slam is a conversational podcast that features discussions and debates around various historical topics or issues relevant to the understanding of history. Whether we talk with a historian about their new book or a musician about including historical references in their songs, History Slam focuses on the stories of the past, how those stories influence us today, and their role in shaping our shared culture. Within a relaxed environment we’re going to try and have some fun with history while highlighting stories from the past. We’re always looking for new suggestions for topics and guests so any ideas or feedback can be sent to historyslam@gmail.com and you can follow Sean on Twitter @drseannyfever.

    In recent years, there has been no shortage of news stories on opioids and overdose deaths in Canada.
