Well done

This podcast is well produced. I wasn’t old enough to vote in 2000, but I vaguely remember how Al Gore didn’t want overseas military votes counted. Very good.

It’s pretty clear they wanted Gore to win
Excellent Reporting

I grew up as a child of the 80s and AIDS was everywhere but your report gave me a whole new insight into the history of how it was treated and actions taken or lack of. Looking forward to the next topic.
Absolutely brilliant journalism

The extremely important story of AIDS in American is given the dignity it deserves with incredible research and storytelling at its finest. A must-listen — I cannot recommend more highly
If only politics could have been left out of this podcast…

I enjoyed learning about this subject now that more is known about AIDS/HIV. The narrator has a pleasant voice and tone~ just seems a bit biased towards the left. And WAY too easy on Fauci and his missteps with this disease. He is responsible for much of the delays in acting - very sad.
Incredible!

I was a big fan of Slow Burn. I’ve listened to the first three episodes of Season 5 (AIDS crisis), all of which have been excellent. I also really enjoyed Season 2 (Iran-Contra). However. I stopped listening about halfway through the first episode of Season 1 (Bush v Gore) because the narrator grossly misrepresented Gore’s odds of winning the election. I am old enough to remember that one, and it’s simply not true that Gore was on a glide path to the presidency. I also stopped listening to Season 3 (Boston busing) very early on, because the narrator completely sidestepped a huge issue: both black and white parents objected to their children spending literally hours on the bus. There was *also* a lot of racism, but I can’t trust someone who doesn’t even mention this. San Francisco is one of the few cities that still buses, and every parent I know says it adds nothing but chaos to school admissions. We also still have very disparate educational gaps, so however well-intentioned, busing is bad policy. Bottom line, like all wonky podcasts, the narrator has a distinctly liberal lean. That mostly works for me since it’s in line with my own political sympathies, but be aware you may not be getting the full story.
