Show Notes

Pulitzer Prize–winning historian David McCullough spent decades helping Americans see their past in human terms.

She joins us ahead of her American Ancestors Headquarters event today at 5 p.m. To learn more go here.  

From there Mary  Grant, president of MassArt joins us for her monthly appearance as part of our recurring series “AI: Actual Intelligence.”

Finally Berlin-based baker Laurel Kratochvila joins the Culture SHow to talk about her new cookbook  Dobre Dobre: Baking from Poland and Beyond. The book celebrates Poland’s baking traditions — from Jewish-diasporic classics to regional favorites — and reveals how migration and memory live on in every recipe.
