First seasons were amazing, content is now still mostly good but drowning in ads, and feed is full of plugs for other podcasts. Final straw is a Paid Partnership with T Mobile!? Jesus, now it's just an infomercial show

season 1 was interesting, season 2 much less. My breakpoint was when instead of a podcast, I got a country music station.

Lately it feels like Malcolm Gladwell has sold out. I used to be intrigued but what was the Cadillac episode about? Please bring back the factual, interesting and fascinating analysis of historic records and their accuracy.

Great content in the first season or two, but latest episodes are hit or miss, more randome one-offs, not as insightful, and more of Malcolm tooting his own horn.

Description

Revisionist History is Malcolm Gladwell's journey through the overlooked and the misunderstood. Every episode re-examines something from the past—an event, a person, an idea, even a song—and asks whether we got it right the first time. From Pushkin Industries. Because sometimes the past deserves a second chance.
