Compelling and convincing.

This is a fine and varied series of investigations into January 6 and its wider significance. The interviews are especially powerful. The episode on Semaor Hawley is particularly revealing. I have read widely on the Trump presidency and how it ended in violence, this series has added greatly to my knowledge and understanding. As these show, democracy in the USA hangs by a thread that is fraying by the hour. Listen!

Too many ads

Fifteen minutes in and I've already heard six ads, including one repeated one. Don't even bother listening to this. You can't even get into the content between the ads.
