Lapham’s Quarterly is excited to share our new podcast: The World in Time.

You may be familiar with a previous incarnation of the show, produced for Bloomberg Radio from 2008 to 2013. The new series picks up where the Bloomberg show left off, featuring conversations on historical topics ancient to modern. In each episode Lewis H. Lapham, the founder and editor of Lapham’s Quarterly, interviews an author of a new book of history. Episodes will be released biweekly.

In the first episode of the new series, Lewis Lapham talks with Nancy Isenberg, author of White Trash: The 400-Year Untold History of Class in America, about the language of poverty and American myths about class, work, and equality.
