Let's Get Civical

The conversational tone of this pod is the perfect way for me to learn about US history and civics in a way that actually sticks and makes sense. I absolutely love these hosts!

After finding this podcast I felt compelled to write this review because it’s a true gem. In recent years I have felt a greater duty as a citizen to be informed on the functions of government, courts, legislature, and how these systems came to be. There are obviously lots of books on civics, American History, government, etc but I’ve found them to be long winded, and convoluted and I usually need another book just to understand what I’ve read. This is where Lizzie and Arden come in. They present their topics with such a clear focus and their magnetic personalities make the episodes not only extremely digestible but a true joy. I owe them a sincere thank you for approaching their subjects with heart, integrity, compassion, and lots of humor. As someone who learns best while being entertained this podcast has been such a gift. Do yourself a favor and listen to every episode!

Hosts Lizzie and Arden create a perfect blend of cold hard facts with light banter and riffs that remind you to stay in the present and not get mired down with the technicalities and herstory of America. Each episode is like a flashback to that government AP class with your best friend. You will undoubtedly learn something, especially if you're a life-long citizen. Thanks for the pod ladies and keep it up

I really had high hopes for this podcast, but I’m sorry to say that I agree with the people here who gave it a low-rating. I couldn’t even get pass the first 10 minutes of the first episode. I usually love a good conversational-like podcast, but as the poor reviews said the Valley-Girl speech, their off-track, indirect way of talking and explaining, along with the poor sound quality I found all very distracting. I just wanted them to get on with it already, but soon realized this is how the entire podcast was going to be and I couldn’t go on.
