“I’ve loved American History since I was lucky enough to have the best 8th grade American History teacher a kid could have. He taught history by telling the stories. Making us as his students hang on every minute of his lectures. Fast forward to last year, my twin boys were in 8th grade. Their American History teacher assigned reading in their text books, and had the students tell her about what they read in class. No lectures or teaching. My boys struggled to learn and understand. When they asked me for help understanding the intolerable acts, I was ashamed to admit that I couldn’t remember. I then began to look for a podcast that would help me remember what I had forgotten, and show my boys that history was not only extremely important, but could (and should) be fun. I work in law enforcement, and spend most of my work day in a vehicle. Your podcast has helped me through many long shifts. As for the title of this review, I just finished your Q&A with the team, and heard you to refer to the “One guy in South Dakota.”
Thanks for what you do!”
