One lifetime is too short to visit everywhere and meet everyone. That‘s why we love books with a strong sense of place — they let us travel the world in our imagination. In each episode of our Strong Sense of Place podcast, we explore one destination and talk about what makes that place different from everywhere else. Then we recommend five books that took us to that place on the page. Every other week, we share The Library of Lost Time, a mini-pod that features two new books and our Distraction of the Week. We‘re on a trip around the globe, one great read at a time. Please join us!

When anyone asks Audrey why she moved to Alaska, she tells them for a fresh start. But a lot of the people in Alaska are hiding from something. And Audrey is no different. When she journeyed to Alaska, she found something even more dangerous. Maybe we feel the uncanny valley because long ago, we had to fear something that pretended to be human.

Decent storytelling but the narrator says “like” every couple of words. Couldn’t keep listening.

As a historian I’m picky about which history podcasts I listen to. They have to be accurate but still entertaining. Ann manages to do both superbly well. If you like drunk history, sarcasm, and problematic faves then I promise you won’t be disappointed!
Love her voice!

Like laughing with a friend but you learn stuff at the same time. None of the pretension that so many “serious” historians have. Also, Ann uses the exact correct number of times saying “like” when she talks, every time. Perfect, 5 stars, highly recommend.
