This week I had the pleasure of speaking with Thomas Frank. Thomas is a political analyst, historian, and journalist. I wanted him to join me on Under The Skin as I’m currently reading his book The People, No: A Brief History of Anti-Populism—in which he examines the origin of the term “populism” in the United States, and discusses historical examples of populism, its adherents, and its detractors. Populism has gotten a bad wrap, and most people think it is something it is not. In this episode Thomas gives us a history lesson in Populism. You may be surprised by what you learn.More Info:Thomas's book and website: <a href="https://cms.megaphone.fm/organizations/02a9d5c0-ed04-11e8-a486-cff8856d7e80/podcasts/6d775572-518a-11e9-bfe7-275e901419d0/episodes/8aecbd14-ac6c-11ec-873e-4f69af208cb5/%20https://tcfrank.com"> </a><a href="https://tcfrank.com/">https://tcfrank.com</a>My meditation podcast, Above the Noise, is out now, only on Luminary.
