One week after the historic political turnaround of the 2026 U.S. Midterm elections, Cory sits down with history teacher and content creator Emily Glankler from Anti-Social Studies to discuss historic political trends involving left-wing movements in the United States. We discussed everything from early Socialist leader Eugene V. Debs who ran for president five times (including once from prison), to President Franklin D. Roosevelt and his famous New Deal policies. We also discuss the complicated legacy of President Lyndon B. Johnson and his Great Society plan while wrapping up with how Bernie Sanders won even after he lost.
Late night talk show hosts used to hold an insane of power and influence over American society. And while most of that power rested in Johnny Carson's hands for most of the mid to late 20th Century, his retirement in 1992 opened the door for a slew of both established and new-to-game late night hosts to fight for the attention of Americans after hours. Join me as I talked to teacher and content creator Skate Carter about the ups and downs of late night TV from the early 1990s to the 2010s. We discussed everything from two late night wars to SNL to why Pat Sajak thought it was a good idea to enter the late night battle.
This week Cory sat down with food scientist and content creator Hydroxide to discuss the inner mysteries of some of your favorite kids snacks of the 1990s and early 2000s. From Hot Pockets to Lunchables to Pepsi Blue, Hydroxide explains what made these foods pop and why they remained so popular for so long. She also brings up a few tasty favorites that you may have completely forgotten about, such the Wonder Ball, while reminding us why green ketchup probably wasn't the best idea.
On the inaugural episode of Trending History, Cory sits down with content creator Treehouse Detective for a full on discussion on how television once shaped generations. We specifically get into television trends from the 1990s and early 2000s. Treehouse Detective reflects on some of the most unforgettable moments in MTV history, from the VMAs to Human Giant, while Cory talks about missing out on an infamous Super Bowl moment by just one minute. There's also some talk about TiVo, Circuit City, Threes Company, and Jag. In other words, this premiere episode sums up everything this podcast will be all about!
