The Context Podcast
The Context is a podcast from the Charles F. Kettering Foundation, about the history, trends, and ideas shaping democracy in the United States and around the world. Every episode, host Alex Lovit, a Senior Program Officer and Historian with the foundation, interviews someone who has seen it all—scholars, politicians, journalists, and public servants.
