Welcome to The Seasoned Migrant Podcast! Over the next ten weeks, we’ll be exploring the intersections between culture, history and society. We want to unpack the big ideas that influenced the way we think and the moments which set our world on new trajectories. Every Wednesday we’ll be releasing a new episode and you can expect to hear about: the bittersweet story of chocolate, the politics of national museums, the soap opera as an icon in the developing world, school history curriculums and national heroes, and so much more. To hear about these exciting perspectives, subscribe to our podcast and follow us on Instagram (@seasoned.migrant).
