Distracting One Sided Commentary

“An entertaining podcast, sometimes with one sided commentary regarding events or people in the history of the US. As is the case often today, events and actions are viewed with a lens in today’s terms and not in the times in which they occurred. In Episode 241 a commentary remark “the evils of capitalism run amok” is made without factual support and is superfluous to the story. Another remark about W A Clark and his corrupt political actions are referred to as “this is so American and shady”. So American? How so? Americans have the monopoly on corrupt politicians? Hardly. At least a dozen banana republics and every major country on the world stage have politicians that use bribery and manipulation to get power. It’s hardly a trait that may be typically attributed to “Americans” as implied by the remark “so American”. The sophomoric trend to casually bash the US and view its history with an academic’s one sided lens is getting old and trite. It definitely takes away from the story telling.”

“This is very peaceful and soothing, while also having information on how footprints were three toed in the 70s, and how bunnies wear plaid. The hosts are smart, cool people with open minds and knowledge of fairy tales. Plus: Flannel Man.”

“One of the best, and most intelligent looks into the paranormal and curious history. Brilliantly presented and very well researched.”
