S01E38 We're Back! Thoughts on the Future of the Podcast We're back from break! While I've been away, I've still been doing reading on China and thinking about the podcast, thinking about how to keep moving it forward. I'll probably move to a more modular approach: 2-3 episodes on a topic, a person, an event. Episodes to tie the narrative together. Also a lot on international context, the world in which Chinese revolutionaries are seeking to reconstitute the Chinese state. Lately I've been reading Street Without Joy by Bernard Fall, covering the French go at having a Vietnam War in the early 1950s. It really shows how the Vietnamese Communists were savvy, competent fighters of modern war and modern politics, but having to account for their very different resources than available to the French. When we get to the Chinese revolutionaries, we'll see how they're fully modern and competent, but they have to be very resourceful to get where they're going. I've been listening to the podcast The Age of Napoleon by E. M. Rummage. This has inspired my thinking about how to put a podcast together and how to go about focusing on a much longer span of history. If You'd Like to Support the Podcast Subscribe, share, leave a rating.
