History in the News is a podcast dedicated to connecting modern events with historical context. Oftentimes, we hear commentary that is strictly opinion-based which does not provide the background for what is actually happening. We believe that history repeats itself and so we do our best to learn from the past to help people form well informed worldviews for the future.
NFT's and the New Economy - An Interview with Arvin Khamseh - Ep.11
Today I am interviewing Arvin Khamseh who is an NFT marketer. Arvin offers his services to creators to help them sell their NFT's. We will take a dive into explaining in layman's terms what NFT's are and how they function, why their use grew so rapidly in 2021, plus what he forecasts will be the next big thing in the future. I very much enjoyed this podcast as we learned more about this emerging market and the technology behind it.

Bosnia, Ukraine, & Russia - An Interview with Ella Colic - Ep.10
Today I am excited to release my first interview! Today we are speaking with Ella Colic about her book, "Trees Without Roots (https://treeswithoutroots.com/shop/)" in which she provides first-hand accounts of the Bosnian Civil war. Bosnia has much in common with Ukraine being that they are both formerly Soviet-Bloc States and that they have both been torn by war various times throughout their history.
In this interview I seek to learn more about the Bosnian War and the outcomes of such a horrible conflict. Then, we apply our understanding of the outcomes of the Bosnian War to speculate on what Ukraine may look like after their current conflict with Russia.

In today's episode we break down the history behind the decision and examine the context.

The History of The Gun Free School Zones Act - Ep.7
What is the legislative background of one of the most critical school-safety acts in our history? What has the effect of this act been upon our schools?
Today, we are breaking down the Gun-Free School Zones Act of 1990 and discussing it's implications and application. I hope to take a no-nonsense approach that is critical of the approach taken by both sides of the political spectrum in order to drill down on what will actually help stop this wave of unfortunate events.
We also take the time to recognize the heroic actions of Jacob Albarado who was the key player in ending the mass shooting in Uvalde, TX.
