ABOUT THIS SHOW
First Avenue Presents History That Doesn’t Suck with Professor Greg Jackson.
Think of HTDS as covering the basics of what an American should but possibly doesn't know (or has forgotten) about history. The podcast episodes are roughly one hour, story-driven, and irreverently educational. Each episode stands on its own as a story, but taken together, they will also walk you through a survey of US history that starts with the Revolution and will (eventually) go right up to the present. It's everything you need and want to know. And it's a good time - especially live!
