Description

HITM uses character focused storytelling to convey the ideas of the past that have shaped us today. We dive into wars and politics to see how the values of nations and their populations have reacted to the world around them. This is social evolution and biography wrapped in storytelling. This is History in the Making. HITM is currently in Season 1. Season 1 covers much of the classical age of Greece including the “invention” of democracy, the Persian Wars, politics of Pericles and Themistocles, the Golden Age, the Peloponnesian Wars, and much more.

I’m just going quote the show itself. Rather than say something. “Incredible violence had to have occurred in order to permit our existence, it was through magnitudes of tribulation & unimaginable cosmic violence that we are possible. In the same way the legacy of Athens is more than its stunning history, violence & peace, ingenuity & brute grit, its occasional burst of cruelty, but also its conscious efforts to improve. These events bore the elements necessary to bring us into the political thinking of today. Their legacy is more than the sun bleached legacy of the Parthenon, there’s also the ideas forged in the crucible of Athens & now live on both in our minds & an every rebirth of democracy today” This why I love listening to this podcast, the prose is simple incredible, and the ability to bring the past to life. Giving the bones of facts of history, blood, sinew, flesh and life.
