dumb idea for a banger episode: What is "WOKE" history? I'd look over Trump's attacks on the Smithsonian and other federal history sources, trying to find if there is anything consistent

Read it. Seems pretty standard

Just thought it might provide some more material.

Maybe an answer to what the hell "woke" is in the first place.

Woke history through the years? It would be fun to see the similarities to McCarthyism and now? Consistent is anything Trump doesn't like?

Seems like a good chance to examine the National Standard Lynne Cheney raised hell about in the 90s as a point of comparison, because it’s not like this is the first time the right has attacked the Smithsonian for being “too progressive”

I did talk about that in the culture war and attacks on education episodes. Dunno what would be worthwhile in rehashing that besides showing this is the same old BS
