Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 484
We humans are the inheritors of a dynasty that has reigned over the planet for nearly 66 million years, through fiery cataclysm and ice ages: the mammals. Our lineage includes saber-toothed tigers, woolly mammoths, armadillos the size of a car, cave bears three times the weight of a grizzly, clever scurriers that outlasted Tyrannosaurus rex, and even other types of humans, like Neanderthals.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 14
Since the start of the Trump era, the United States and the Western world has finally begun to wake up to the threat of online warfare and the attacks from Russia. The question no one seems to be able to answer is: What can the West do about it? Central and Eastern European states, however, have been aware of the threat for years. Nina Jankowicz has advised these governments on the front lines of the information war. The lessons she learnt from that fight—and from her attempts to get US congress to act—make for essential listening.

Note to narrators - you make it hard to listen to you when you do accents. Your Estonian and your Donald Trump accents are so cringy!

After years of living abroad and covering the Global War on Terrorism, Luke Mogelson went home in early 2020 to report on the social discord that the pandemic was bringing to the fore across the US. An assignment that began with right-wing militias in Michigan soon took him to an uprising for racial justice in Minneapolis, then to antifascist clashes in the streets of Portland, and ultimately to an attempted insurrection in Washington, D.C. His dispatches for The New Yorker revealed a larger story with ominous implications for America. They were only the beginning.

A dispassionate and troubling portrait of far right rage
Revisado: 01-03-23
A deeply insightful narrative of the Jan 6th mob from a war correspondent who embedded himself in it. He compares the self-described defenders of America with freedom fighters he reported on from foreign wars. In other war zones, warriors articulate a rational ideology for their fight, where as here, the far right’s thinking is fueled by delusion. Regular people caught up in a toxic net of misinformation and QAnon hysteria, are whipped into a frenzy of losing their country in a zero sum game.

Brilliant historical encapsulation of political warfare
Revisado: 09-23-21
Understanding the roots of disinformation, misinformation and the manipulation of populaces through history is incredibly important, especially now as our own society has been brought to its knees because of the political machinations of an enemy. Anyone interested in history, demagogues, the media, politics needs to read this book. The performance was excellent, the story was so compelling I literally couldn’t stop listening to it. I want to read all of Tim Weiner’s books.
