About The Violet Podcast
From the publisher's feed
Welcome to The Violet, a current affairs podcast for anyone interested in Politics, Economics, History and the Social Sciences. As teachers, we've always been passionate about helping our students understand fundamental theories in the social sciences that explain what's going on in our world. We wanted to open up our classrooms to anyone and everyone who wants to know more about the theory behind the news, presented in a clear, balanced, and insightful manner.
New episodes are uploaded fortnightly on Saturdays.
