Historically Insignificant
by Drew Ferreira and Jason P.
From Ancient Greece to Modern America, from the invention of the wheel to the invention of the smartphone, and from a time of mythology and story-telling to a time of scientific enlightenment and capitalist innovation, this podcast will be an attempt to better understand and situate current cultural, economic, and political trends in a larger framework of historical significance and potential future impact. I will also be attempting to bring back meaningful civil conversation on a wide variety of controversial topics. So join us, Drew and Jason, and lets be historically insignificant together
