"Maybe my fave podcast ever."

"Absolutely love this podcast. Each episode, the hosts discuss a person or event in history that has been grossly mischaracterized by the media or retellings. The Tonya Harding episode is fascinating!"

"YWA was the first podcast I got into, starting with the Princess Diana series. I love the way the hosts engage with each other and manage to balance being funny with being informative. My favorite thing about it is how they encourage seeing the humanity in everyone and understanding nuances and complexities, like in their ultimate thesis on Princess Diana: “You can be a hot mess express and still leave the world better than you found it.” "

"Millennials will love this. It features two millennials discussing events mostly from the '90s but also from other decades that you're probably wrong about due to the way it was portrayed by the media and how it's remembered in the public consciousness. As an older Gen X-er who lived through all of these '90s events as a young adult, it's a very interesting recent history lesson. I truly cannot believe how wrong I was about so many of these events. #90s #millennial #recenthistory "

"Ugh I’ve already commented on this show but I just have to again. This podcast inspires me to be a more open minded thinker, a wide eyed observer, and to question everything I think I know. They focus on little vignettes of history or science but the lessons are so much more broad than that. "

"Loved the way Michael and Sarah interacted with the stories. The Princess Diana episodes are a must! Have tried some shows now that Michael has left, still good but missing him."

"I was worried that I wouldn’t like it as much now that Michael left, but it’s still really good. Like the topics—never knew I needed to know more about Martha Stewart (the most recent episode) but I definitely did. "

"Recasting of controversial or scandalous news stories from the 80s & 90s with what the media left out"
