This episode features a promo for Jon Ronson’s new podcast miniseries, Things Fell Apart, from BBC4 Radio. He investigates the surprising origins of different elements of today's culture wars featuring interviews with many people who, however pivotal, you've probably never heard of, and who rarely give interviews. It's topics like anti-abortion activism among evangelicals, publicly shaming people for things they said online, different waves of feminism and contemporary trans activists, racism, anti-racism, teaching sex ed, and on and on. A common theme among many of the episodes is activists becoming, in a sense, victims of their own success. It's terrifically well done and strikes a nearly impossible to achieve note of nuanced even-handedness. I think everyone who was featured in the show would say they got a perfectly fair hearing and that listeners will feel similarly about how their views are represented, regardless of which side of any given issue they are on. It's just fantastic.
