Welcome to episode 25, the silver jubilee edition of History Against the Grain. We’re podcasting from the Truman Balcony, steroid free, speaking truth to power, and not even a little winded. Think of HAG as the podcast equivalent of Deadwood, a wild west roaring camp of a podcast, where an uncompromising saloonkeeper and brothel owner is the standard bearer of every episode’s conscience, and a hustler like Donald Trump ain’t fooling anyone. Just ask our special interview guests, a couple of HAG alums, Elise Robison and Kyle Fitzpatrick, who by day are high school history and government teachers, and guardians of our public education universe. Hearing them will leave you feeling much better about the state of things in these fraught times. So pour yourself a whisky, because there are no checks and balances here in Deadwood, and the saucy boys know that systems are for suckers.
