Hi Harry Potter and Secretary of Text listeners. We are popping back into your feed.

Did you do something a little bit different? We're sharing an episode of a podcast we love,

and that we're sure you will too.

You might be familiar with revisionist history. It's best-selling author Malcolm Gladwell's podcast

that re-examines something from the past and asks whether we got it right the first time.

This season Malcolm's obsessed with experiments. National experiments, scientific experiments,

and a little thing he calls magic wand experiments. In the preview you're about to hear, Malcolm tells

the story of how his parents and their friends sponsored Vietnamese refugees in the aftermath of

the Vietnam War, and how that experience went on to shape Malcolm and his brother.

His mother and her friends reflect on a Bible verse from Matthew chapter 25.

For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty, and you gave me something to drink.

And they share how this verse guided their volunteer work. Malcolm wonders why more of our refugee

policies are not guided by the biblical example of the Good Samaritan and the value of kindness.

Okay, so here's the preview. We hope you enjoy it. You can hear the full episode and more

from revisionist history wherever you get your podcasts.

Can we go around the table and everyone just say their name? I'm starting with you, Doris.
