You're Wrong About

weish shared a tip "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!"

SailorPulsar shared a tip "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.” #society_and_culture #debunking #educational #funny #social_issues #history"

RUFtotheRESCUE shared a tip "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"

aviva_downing shared a tip "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."

suzanne_wright_9272 shared a tip "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."

rose_frye_1026 shared a tip "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."

effie_5028 shared a tip "I definitely think it is. The hosts are both journalists and they do a lot of research on the topics and dismantle common misconceptions people have around the subject."

margoat shared a tip "An all time fav. I especially enjoyed the Jessica Simpson book club series. Sarah and Michael are so smart and funny. I want to be their friend."

kaeli_kae shared a tip "Wonderful reporting! I loved this podcast when it was Sarah and Michael, but unfortunately, Sarah just doesn’t have ‘it’ enough for me to stay interested when she’s the only host. I also cannot stand the constant millennial jokes… there are other things to joke about, sorry Sarah… but otherwise great podcast!"

natasha_willhoff-mc shared a tip "This is one of my all time favorite podcasts! I also like Michael's other podcast Maintenance Phase. I miss both Sarah and Michael on the show, but the new version is still great!"

fauncefus shared a tip "Human Trafficking really struck me. Just how law enforcement and media puts a spin on stories to make it seem like sex workers are being rescued."

rebecca_bolduc_boyer shared a tip "It is so great! I love the hosts and they have so much good info about interesting topics that I remembered hearing about, but didn’t know all of the in depth info. For example, the Syphilus Tuskegee studies were so involved and they just skimmed over it in history like it was nothing. Hope this helps!"

vanessa_moreau shared a tip "@jeff_lenz Honestly, I only listened to their episodes on Princess Diana in full so far. I mostly listen to political or news pods. I'm Canadian and it was interesting to hear about the British monarchy from Americans' perspective. It made me realize how much it's romanticized here."

jennifer_boals shared a tip "I thought I knew events in history but this podcast showed me I don't know events as well as I thought! Humorous in addition to interesting"

kirstilouise24 shared a tip "One of my favorite podcasts, and I’ve only listened to about 10 episodes. I feel like I could hang out with the hosts. They’re laid back and easy to listen to, and have studied the topics they’re talking about without being snobby. They’re open to learning something new and taking on a new perspective, and sometimes talk about their anxieties/struggles, which makes them feel like real people."

sheilan shared a tip "One of my all time favorites! Learn about recent history & pop culture, look back at the events you kinda remember but not really... the hosts have a great rapport and make you feel all the smarter for listening #history #pop_culture #biweekly"

loucindy shared a tip "Was the podcast I looked forward to the most. Michael and Sarah were so great together. I miss Michael being a part of the show. Still enjoy Sarah and the topics, but it’s like an ingredient is missing from the recipe now."

kara_omer shared a tip "A good source of knowledge for those things that you've only heard about in passing or thought you knew. Plus the hosts are very real and funny on top of everything"
