Worlds Turned Upside Down

Worlds Turned Upside Down tells the story of the American Revolution as a transatlantic crisis and imperial civil war through the lives of people who experienced it. For many modern citizens of the United States, “the cause of America” that gave birth to a new nation in 1776 and the heroic stories we tell ourselves about its founding remains “in great measure the cause of all mankind.” But for the people who lived through it, the revolutionary era upended their lives in ways they could have never imagined. The crisis that engulfed the Atlantic world in the late eighteenth century inspired British Americans, Indigenous nations, enslaved Africans and African Americans, Europeans, and other peoples to question their loyalties, challenge authority, seek freedom, and resist revolutionary change. Worlds Turned Upside Down is narrated and written by Dr. Jim Ambuske. It is a production of R2 Studios at George Mason University.

I’m enjoying the approach to topics, and storytelling, that looks at a broader cultural and practical context for the Revolutionary War. I wish the episodes came out a little quicker but I appreciate the care being put in.
Great Listen

Jim is a phenomenal narrator and the editing, sounds, and immersive feeling are all superb. Great for listening while cooking, cleaning, or going on walks. Like all good podcasts, this one brings up a million wonders and new questions to go explore about American history.
Fantastic history!

This podcast is one of my favorite history podcasts of all time. So well done, greatly researched, and engrossing. I grew up on unceded Seneca lands and have visited many of the forts mentioned in the early episodes so this telling really brought that history alive. Highly recommend!
Thoughtful, nuanced, and colorful depiction of the Revolution

This story of the Revolution is not the one you got in high school - and that’s a good thing. It’s far more complex, colorful, and interesting than a list of facts and dates. The global revolution is the one we should all know!
Fascinating!

My teenage son and I love listening to this podcast. Well-researched and well-narrated, with voices from different cultural backgrounds to give you a sense of how diverse early America was. Highly recommend for history enthusiasts!

Are there only going to be four episodes? An excellent historical background that I don’t recall learning much about in school as a kid. Impressed by the idea that Britain was the second great multinational corporation behind the Catholic Church. And it gives interesting perspective into the origins of the second amendment of our constitution.
Great listen

Really engaging podcast! I appreciate getting the context of the battles and conflicts, especially the diplomatic challenges between the Indigenous and European peoples.
