Revisionist History with Malcolm Gladwell

No Harm In Asking

Jul 20 2022 • 27 mins

This week we go back to the one that started it all, well, at least for Mike.

From a little town in Southwestern Ontario to Toronto to Washington to the world, it seems obvious that few can tell a story like the truly talented, and always inquisitive, Mr. Gladwell. As well, for those out there doing 1 hour or even 2 hour-plus podcasts, it's worth listening to what a master of the trade can pack into just a half hour.

In this episode Michael Kerr and Eric Byron tackle why we believe this podcast is always a pleasure and a privilege to listen to.

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.

This week we focus on Malcolm's recent Season 7 episodes, including "In Triplicate" and "The Magic Wand Experiment". We also listened to a few back in Season 6 for our review, including "Project Dillard", "Lord of the Rankings" and "I Love You Waymo".
