1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Tom Ashbrook and Heidi Legg team up to bring you a new podcast with voices across America in a sudden Swing State of mind. Life and death, a crashing economy, and the way we live has been upended. Our first interview with historian Heather Cox Richardson,&amp;nbsp;whose daily&amp;nbsp;Letters From An American&amp;nbsp;has over 500,000 readers each morning, helps us to understand this moment in time and offers us a deep sweeping historical context.&amp;nbsp;Professor of History at Boston College, where she teaches courses on the American Civil War, the Reconstruction Era, the American West, and the Plains Indians, Richardson has authored five books&amp;nbsp;that each chronicle a&amp;nbsp;major movement like the one we are living. &amp;nbsp; We hope you will follow us on Twitter @PodState&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;on iTunes&amp;nbsp;as we bring you relevant voices that will help us all grasp this new era.&amp;nbsp; Swing State http://swingstatepod.libsyn.com/website <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/13753562/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/item/13753562
