About the Podcast
Unprecedented Times is an examination of the difficult times in which we live. These are times of rising intolerance and radical right-wing politics. We should be worried. We have been here before. Hate and intolerance are nothing new. Learning about the Holocaust – not merely as a history lesson, but as a lesson for the present and the future – will help to protect us from some very bad ideas.
Thank you so much for this brilliant podcast, Jason. You delve very deep into the history and background without getting overly emotional. This is the way the Shoah should be taught. We really need more podcasts like this. Excellent work.

Touching and painful. It is so refreshing to hear something on the Holocaust exuding so much research without losing an ounce of the humanity one needs to speak of these dark times. I can’t tell you how much this has moved me.
