    Interlude

    If you've listening to this, you been with this show a while, scroll back to the beginning of the feed. Everything down there is new. Every episode from the start of this show has been remade. Season one, season two, all of it — re-researched, rewritten, re-recorded, and re-uploaded in place. Some seasons are even totally new content. The old files are gone. You don't have to do anything; if you have the show, you already have them. And they are not the episodes you remember. The early ones ran 5 to 15 minutes. Now they all run 20 to 30.   Jamestown isn't a paragraph about starvation anymore. It's a servant boy's letter home. The founding isn't a summary of what was argued. It's the argument. That's a lot of listening — hundreds of new hours of it, sitting in your feed. If you joined in the middle, this is your chance to start at the actual beginning. If episode one lost you years ago, that episode doesn't exist anymore. And if you've heard every episode of this show — go back anyway. You've heard maybe a third of what's there now. New episodes are paused for a couple of months while I work on the next season. But there is plenty to listen to until then. As always,  Thank you for listening to American Political History.
