Pushkin

Hey last archival listeners, today we're back in your feet to bring you an episode

from Revisioness History, another Pushkin podcast. This season on Revisioness History, Malcolm

Gladwell is going deep on one of the most infuriating topics in American life, guns. This six episode

series looks at America's gun problem through topics like TV Westerns, the assassination of Robert

Kennedy, and the absurdity of the Supreme Court's view of history. In the first episode, Malcolm

takes a close look at a name that popped up in a recent landmark Supreme Court ruling on the

Second Amendment, a 17th century Englishman named John Knight. He was trying to discover why so much

of the 21st century American argument about gun control seemed to hinge on Knight's story,

and he wound up in some pretty surprising places. All right, here's the episode. You can binge

listen to all six episodes early and ad-free by subscribing to Pushkin Plus on Apple Podcasts

or by visiting pushkin.fm slash plus. Or you can hear the episodes weekly in the Revisioness

History podcast feed.
