Michael McColly's essays have appeared in The New York Times, the Boston Review, and The Sun magazine. He is the author of the Lambda Literary Award–winning memoir The After-Death Room, chronicling his journey reporting on AIDS activism in Africa, Asia, and the United States.
We spoke to Michael about how your perception radically changes when you move through the world with intention, how his 63-mile journey through Chicago forever changed how he views the city, and concrete steps listeners can take to see their own neighborhoods and cities in a brand new light.

Simon Cordery is Professor and Chair in the History Department at Iowa State University. Simon’s research ranges across the modern Atlantic and he is the author of three other books: The Iron Road in the Prairie State, Mother Jones, and British Friendly Societies, 1750–1914.
We spoke to Simon about George Pullman’s older brother Albert Benton Pullman and his many contributions to the extraordinary success of the Pullman sleeping car, why Albert’s history was overshadowed and in many cases rewritten by his younger brother George, and the many things we can learn about the Gilded Age by studying how ordinary investors and entrepreneurs like Albert operated during that time.
