From the Story Producer:
I’ve often felt that if people could see the words their politicians write behind closed doors, they would be shocked, and probably learn a lot. That was the initial goal for this series, to deep dive these types of declassified documents in order to give people an inside look at the political process, how the government works, and how politicians use their power in covert ways.
This episode explores US covert oper...

This track contains a beautiful field recording performed by Naha Tiger titled "Fox Song". The recording was really what inspired me to create "Departure Chant". You can find more about "Fox Song" here. Thank you for listening and enjoy. - Tom Fox

In Part 2 of “How the U.S. Stole America,” we take a closer look at Oklahoma’s role in Native American history.
For this video, we spoke to John Truden from the University of Oklahoma, and we're so grateful to him for sharing his expertise on this history. We could not have done this story without his insight and willingness to answer all of our questions.
Hope you enjoy.

This is the second of my videos shot while in Greenland a few months back.
While I was there, I got to learn first-hand how the competition between great world powers is bringing new opportunities -- but also great change -- to the country of Greenland. In today's video, I'm exploring why Greenland has become so important, and particularly how the people of Greenland feel about that change.
I hope you enjoy.

Note from the Story Producer:
One of our favorite video genres as of late is “print tons of documents and highlight all the bad stuff in them.” That’s exactly what we did with Insider Trading, a piece in which we attempt to show the extent of Congress using closed-to-the-public intelligence briefings and classified info to play the stock market and enrich themselves. We knew things were bad, but what we found turned out to be much much worse than even we expected, and...

Really excited to announce that the soundtrack for Johnny's video about mapping Antarctica is now available to listen to on all streaming services! This album of tracks came from many hours of experimentation and collaboration between Johnny and I. These are pieces I am really proud of and I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as I did creating them.

We decided to sprint on this video a couple weeks ago and it was finished just this morning and then live! In it, we explore why Sudan is on the brink of civil war, and how its history of military dictatorships sent it down this path.

Hey Patrons - I’m very excited to share this with you!
It’s a documentary we’ve been working on for months. It’s my attempt to capture and understand the story of Greenland and its people and traditions. This was a journey or lots of learning and I’m excited to finally put it out.
I really hope you enjoy!

From Tom Fox: This song came from jealousy. I heard something that I wanted to have created, so I made my own version of it. Sometimes that happens when I am making music and a lot of the time those are some of my favorite tracks.

Note from the Story Producer:
This was a fun one, knowing that we would have Johnny and Cleo both in the studio, we decided to use a lot of physical media in our presentation. We really love how this dialogue turned out and hope the video will be an evergreen source of solid information about nuclear power.

Recently, I’ve become obsessed with the Arctic. I just got back from Greenland in February and this is the first of three videos all about it. This one, about the race to the North Pole. It’s a peak into the last glimmer of the age of exploration.

Since this video is about Kim Jong-Il’s love for cinema, specifically feature films, we had to exercise great discipline not to go into all the other North Korean propaganda, like posters and videos. In researching, we found this treasure trove of North Korean propaganda films, and boy are they wild to sift through! We only got to throw in a few gems from these ...

In this video we show the coercion tactics that the U.S. government used to ultimately force the Indigenous people of America from their ancestral homelands. This is part one of “How the U.S. Stole America.”

I am obsessed with this place. A large continent laying right at the bottom of our planet, a place we were never meant to go. And yet, we mapped it.
Through a series of maps, a story of struggles and triumphs unfolds -- the story of how this desolate place turned from imaginary musings to the best mapped surface on the planet.
