Story of the Week with Joel Stein

De: Pushkin Industries
  • Resumen

  • On Story of the Week, “journalist” Joel Stein chooses an article that fascinates him, convinces the writer to tell him about it, and then interrupts a good conversation by talking about himself. Sometimes the story will be the one everyone is talking about, like the New Yorker article on smoking hallucinogenic toads. Other times we’ll find a story you might have missed, like the one in the Verge about the rock groupie turned hacker who had huge corporations at her mercy. These are stories you’ll tell your friends about. Stories that stick with you long after you forget whatever headline you just doom-scrolled through.

  • Hitler’s Olympics from Revisionist History
    Jul 1 2024

    Adolf Hitler swept to power in Germany in the early 1930s and soon set out to stage the most extravagant and spectacular summer Olympics yet: the 1936 Berlin Games. And countries around the world dutifully put together their teams and made the trip to Germany. Why?

    In a new series from Revisionist History, Malcolm Gladwell and Ben Naddaff-Hafrey explore the games behind the Games, the most consequential Olympics in history. Along the way, they meet a collection of the world’s daffiest aristocrats. A couple of American construction moguls. A legendary triple-jumper. And one discerning journalist.

    Heroes and villains. The clear-eyed and the deluded. All of them going to Hitler’s Olympics.

    Here's the first episode of the series. If you want to hear more, find Revisionist History wherever you're listening now.

Short and Sweet

And the best opening and closing songs in podcast history.
Also, "In Defense of Elitism" was good enough to finish.
