History at Midnight
Late night podcast taking up historical analysis and current events. I truly believe that history is one of the most useful subjects of study. Topics for this podcast are chosen for their relation to the two history regents exams required in New York State: U.S. History, and Global History and Geography. Although, only New York has regents exams, most states require similar classes, so many can benefit. This way I kill two birds with one stone: the podcast isn't just some guy who likes talking about history, and high school history topics get to go deep. Our youth are treated like the adults that they actually are.
