Today I want to introduce you to a podcast that I think you might enjoy. It’s called “My History Can Beat Up Your Politics.”

The host and creator of the show, Bruce Carlson, has been doing the podcast since 2006, making it one of the longest-running history podcasts in the world. 

We’ve all heard the phrase, “Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”

Many people in the world today are very ignorant about history and are totally unaware of events that shaped the world we live in today. 

“My History Can Beat Up Your Politics” attempts to shine some light on events from the past which can help us understand the present. 

After this, you can hear a full episode of the podcast. This episode is about a time in American history when a war was going on in Europe. Americans were donating weapons and equipment to one side while debating how much they should be involved. 

Does any of that sound familiar? The year in question, of course, was 1941, not 2022. 

We look at the past, knowing how it all turned out, but back in 1941, no one was sure what would happen. They weren’t sure if the US was going to enter the war and, if so, how it would play out. 

This makes a study of the year 1941 an important lens to look through to understand what is happening today. 

So enjoy this full episode of “My History Can Beat Up Your Politics.” If you enjoy it and want to hear more, you can subscribe wherever you listen to this podcast.

Barely a month after the Normandy Landing in 1944, the allied powers were already thinking of what the post-world would look like.

One of the big issues was the creation of a monetary system that could replace the then abandoned gold standard. 

So, in at a resort in New Hampshire, representatives from 44 countries hammered out a new international monetary system that would govern the world for the next 25 years.

Learn more about the Bretton Woods System and how parts of it still influence the world today on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
