Past Present

Natalia Mehlman Petrzela, Cynthia Greenlee, Neil J. Young, and Nicole Hemmer, editors.

Past Present, created by historians Natalia Mehlman Petrzela, Neil J. Young, and Nicole Hemmer, is a weekly history podcast that turns hindsight into foresight, taking on topics from constitutional originalism to Crossfit, military valor to #MeToo, and public works to the pumpkin spice craze. Here at Past Present x Public Seminar (PPxPS), you can find weekly PP episode downloads plus insightful essays from historians that take on the issues of the day — those addressed on the podcast and beyond.
