In Other Words
In Other Words is a podcast about how we know what we know—and why it matters. The stories we inherit, the systems we trust, and the “truths” we repeat are rarely as simple as they seem. Most have been shaped, spun, and repackaged until the lines between fact and narrative blur.
This show peels back those layers. Each episode looks at the assumptions beneath our politics, history, and culture, tracing how they took shape and what they leave out.
In other words, come unlearn with us.

(bonus episode) I refuse to offer thoughts and prayers
In this episode, we examine the irony and hypocrisy surrounding the death of Charlie Kirk. We look at Utah’s politics, where Republican lawmakers have blocked gun reforms for decades. We revisit Kirk’s own rhetoric, including his claim that “some deaths are necessary” to preserve the Second Amendment. We explore the transformation of flawed figures into martyrs, and how outrage is manufactured and weaponized.
