As long as there’s been oppression, there’ve been people fighting it. This weekly podcast dives into history to drag up the wildest rebels, the most beautiful revolts, and all the people who long to be—and fight to be—free. It explores complex stories of resistance that offer lessons and inspiration for us today, focusing on the ensemble casts that make up each act of history. That is to say, this podcast focuses on Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff.

Kundrecensioner
Every week is Christmas now
I like Margaret’s other podcasts, both her own and her guest appearances on other cool zone media podcasts, and this is as good but more well produced. And, unfortunately, with the same atrocious auto-inserted ads for the worryingly circular podcast economy (though I guess that depends on where you are listening from).
One of my favourite part of the adjacent Behind the Bastards podcast has been the Christmas specials when Robert flips the script and in stead of talking about some war criminal makes an episode about someone who, broadly speaking, did something above average good.
This is that, but every week, and that rules. Part of a balanced diet, I guess.
(This review is based on the first episode and might update as more episodes are released, but I wanted to post something to chase out the tumbleweed from the reviews section)
