History Behind News is an independent program, in which we produce two separate audio and video podcasts:

History Behind New - scholars discussed histories behind a wide range of news topics,
Analyzing American Revolution - 33 scholars, 33 perspectives on the Revolutionary Era
Scholars Unravel Middle East - scholars discussed this region's history from ancient times to our own time.

I am Adel Aali, host and executive producer of this program. Preparing for, producing and posting about HbN's audio and video podcasts is a full-time commitment for me. And I rely on your support to continue my work in bringing you the history behind our news.

So thank you. Thank you for being a valuable part of our program.

About History Behind News:

Understanding News Through History

Others cover the news.

We uncover the history behind it.

We do this in weekly podcast conversations with eminent scholars and historians who explain and analyze the history behind current events.

We call this peeling the history behind the news.

Why is this important? Because American news woefully lacks context.

With more than 250 interviews with eminent scholars from around the world hosted by Adel Aali, HbN is now in its 5th season with new episodes every other Friday at 5 a.m. U.S. Eastern Time.
