Story50
J. Robert Oppenheimer was one of the iconic figures of the 20th century, a brilliant physicist who led the effort to build the atomic bomb but later confronted the moral consequences of scientific progress. When he proposed international controls over atomic materials, opposed the development of the hydrogen bomb, and criticized plans for a nuclear war, his ideas were anathema to powerful advocates of a massive nuclear buildup during the anti-Communist hysteria of the early 1950s.

Story0
The Tragedy of American Science explores how the US economy’s addiction to military spending distorts and deforms science by making it overwhelmingly subservient to military interests. The primary motive driving American science and technology has become the search for new and more efficient ways to kill people. This transforms science from the classic ideal of a creative force for the advancement of humankind into its destructive and antihuman opposite.

Story0
Released in a series of seven installments by Century Magazine in 1893–1894, Tragedy of Puddnhead Wilson is a riveting detective story with potent racial undertones. The narrative intricately weaves together the identities of several characters – the judges murderer, Tom, Chambers – posing a compelling exploration of identity and self-determination. Mark Twain masterfully employs humor and satire to reveal the harsh realities of racism during that era. The novel uses comic relief not just for entertainment, but as a tool to subtly impart Twains views. Twains adept use of ...

The chilling tale of Lizzie Borden, the woman alleged to have brutally murdered her parents, has become a haunting piece of American folklore, immortalized in an unforgettable albeit inaccurate playground jingle. This podcast unravels the real story from the perspective of the local police reporter who not only attended the trial but lived just a few streets away from the Borden residence. Seemingly vanishing after the trial, Porters disappearance sparked rumors of murder or bribery in an attempt to silence his story. His eventual reappearance debunked these theories, but his untimely death at...

On January 27, 1967, astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee climbed into a new spacecraft perched atop a large Saturn rocket at Kennedy Space Center in Florida for a routine dress rehearsal of their upcoming launch into orbit, then less than a month away. All three astronauts were experienced pilots, but little did they know, nor did anyone else, that once they entered the spacecraft that cold winter day they would never leave it alive. Apollo 1 is a candid portrayal of the astronauts, the disaster that killed them, and its aftermath.
