How do we understand the places we visit (and even the places we’ve never been)? As a shorthand, we use agreed-upon touchstones - famous places, famous people famous foods, and, of course, dreams. Dreamed-up people and dreamed-up places and dreamed-up things. This podcast looks at a culture's icons - real and imagined - to see what they say about the culture itself, as well as the outsiders who've elevated those icons above all others.

Miniseries Preview and Re-Release - Jaws: Amity Island Welcomes You
Jaws is back in cinemas this week, so I wanted to do two things. First, re-release our 2020 episode on Jaws as a distinctly New England story; and second, let you know that Iconography is returning with a new miniseries this fall - five episodes looking at Jaws through the lens of its most iconic character (okay it’s most iconic human character), the sea-shanty singing, saltine chomping, Narragansett swilling, shark hunter with a grudge, Quint.

Ebenezer Scrooge (Fifth Anniversary 2nd Edition)
Every day of the holiday season, there is probably someone in your neighborhood watching or reading some version of A Christmas Carol. If you think about it, that means we probably see early Victorian England as often as any other time period. What has kept the story so vital? And how did a young Charles Dickens engender so much empathy for such a miserable man? For Iconography’s fifth anniversary we’re remastering episodes from season one - this is a remastered 2nd edition of Iconography’s first Christmas episode on Ebenezer Scrooge from December 2016, with a new afterward looking at the 2017 film The Man Who Invented Christmas. You can access the original episode from 2016 at https://iconographypodcast.com/articles/ebenezer-scrooge-original-edition-s1!47ae0
