2. Slow Burn Podcast

In the early 1970s, the future of abortion in America was far from settled. Roe v. Wade would change everything, though few knew it at the time. For the seventh season of Slate's Slow Burn, host Susan Matthews explores the path to Roe-a time when more Republicans than Democrats supported abortion rights. You'll hear the forgotten story of the first woman ever to be convicted of manslaughter for having an abortion, the unlikely Catholic power couple who helped ignite the pro-life movement, and a rookie Supreme Court justice who got assigned the opinion of a lifetime.

75. Unobscured | History revealed.

Salem, Massachusetts, US
History is full of stories we think we know. They are old and dark, but time has robbed us of perspective and clarity. They've become obscured and misunderstood. That's why this series exists: to dig deep and shed light on some of history's darkest moments. To make it Unobscured. Each season will pair narrative storytelling from Aaron Mahnke, the creator of Lore, with prominent historian interviews.
