Slow Burn: A Conversation about Impeachment, the Presidency, and Podcasting

Slow Burn: A Conversation about Impeachment, the Presidency, and Podcasting with Leon Neyfakh, Slate Magazine, and Mitch Teich, WUWM

Friday, April 27 from 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm, Merrill Hall, Room 131

Join us in Merrill Hall when Neyfakh sits down with WUWM 89.7 FM – Milwaukee NPR’s Mitch Teich for a live conversation on presidential politics both past and present. The two will talk about the congressional aides whose research uncovered Watergate’s scope, the many ways politicians attempted to cover up wrongdoing, and how this history may help make sense of our current political climate. Don’t miss this opportunity to ask a political historian about the past’s enduring relevance. Sponsored by the Center for 21st Century Studies and WUWM 89.7 FM – Milwaukee’s NPR, with additional support from the Department of History, the UWM Libraries Digital Humanities Lab, and Journalism and Media Studies.
