"Talking History, 1968", begins by telling the listener it is a production of the Organization of American Historians. Get ready for factoids galore! Bryan LeBeau is comfortable and engaging as host of the half hour. He also knows his historical stuff.
Familiar songs of the era (often not by the performer of record) are used effectively to keep the show moving, and it sometimes needs that extra push. A guest commentary comparing the public's response to VietNam and Iraq doesn't really break new ground. And a review of a website about The Pill seems to work here primarily *because this is a historian-produced show. Overall I found "Talking History" interesting and engaging. I'll check out others to see if they would work well on our station as a special program.
