About the Lecture
One of the great success stories of the new media age has been the podcast. This democratic platform has let literally thousands of people try their hand as producers of audio entertainment.
What perhaps could not have been predicted is how podcasts have filled an important niche in the educational life of countless listeners. This is especially true when it comes to history. History podcasts have proved to be a surprisingly popular corner of the podcasting world. More people than ever are learning history from their friends in their earbuds, but are these dedicated amateurs really qualified to be shaping our understanding of the past?
Join Sebastian Major, host of Our Fake History, as he explores how podcasting has changed the public history landscape, and tells first hand stories of the potential dangers of presenting yourself as a historical “truth teller” on the unforgiving internet.
