I love how Katie recounts history. I have a fairly extensive list of podcasts I follow, but skip some of them frequently when setting up my queue. I NEVER skip this one. Not only does Katie teach me things I didn’t know, but she also manages to do it in a way that isn’t dry and boring. One of the things that keeps me coming back for more is that her values align with mine - in other words, she cares about the well being of people in general, whether they are like her or not. When you live in the US in this day and age, you have to find your tribe, no matter where they are in the world. Thanks Katie! Please don’t change a single thing, and keep handing out book recs.

I was directed to listen to this episode from a Threads conversation on the topic of disability justice through history. Willowbrook was far from the only institution of its kind but came up a lot in the conversation. I’m glad I checked out this podcast because I found the information to be researched and compassionately delivered, with the personal outrage communicating how criminally inhumane what happened there was. Thank you for the education.

I’ve totally become obsessive listening to the show while I drive all day. Katie is hilarious, charming and brilliant. Watch out, you too will get hooked on this show. Thank you Katie, you’ve opened my eyes to a lot of history I thought I knew and am happy to find out I was wrong.
