For this bonus episode I’ve teamed up with the excellent History Daily podcast.
Very exciting!
History Daily tells fascinating stories of what happened “on this day” in history with a new episode every weekday.
The early 1950s in the USA stand out as not just a time of economic prosperity but also one of paranoia. The country faced the fear of the atomic bomb, the Red Scare and a moral panic around juvenile delinquency. (Teenagers were new and unpredictable!)
During this time Joseph McCarthy’s power to seek out and persecute perceived communists was at its peak but the tide was about to turn. In 1954 it took journalist Ed Murrow guts to stand up to the influential senator.
You can learn more about History Daily on their website here.
(And please just indulge me in telling you that it is a complete coincidence that this episode release aligns with this day in history! 9th March 1954 is when Ed Murrow aired his report on Joseph McCarthy!)
You can hear more from me on social media platforms Threads, Instagram and somewhat gingerly also on Bluesky.
