It Could Happen Here started as an exploration of the possibility of a new civil war. Now a daily show, it's evolved into a chronicle of collapse as it happens, and an exploration of how we might build a better future. Every day Robert Evans, Garrison Davis, Mia Wong, James Stout and Shereen Lani Younes take you on a jaunty walk through the burning ruins of the old world and towards a better one that lays just on the horizon.

Introducing: Sixteenth Minute (of Fame)
Hi It Could Happen Here Fans! Take a listen to the trailer of our newest show Sixteenth Minute (of Fame)
About the show: Sixteenth Minute (of Fame) is a weekly show from Jamie Loftus that takes a closer look at the internet’s main characters – one part reported, one part interviews, and one part Jamie collapsing her permanently internet-damaged brain. Whether it’s an enduring meme or a dreaded Character of the Day distinction, it’s the kind of notoriety that often results in little money, unwarranted attention, and a confusing blurred line of consent. What do you do when you get more attention and judgement than any one person is built to handle? The Sixteenth Minute of Fame is the place where we figure that out, putting people in the context of the moment they've been frozen inside of.
Listen here and subscribe to Sixteenth Minute (of Fame) on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts!

Customer Reviews
I “like” it.
The content is really good, and I’d been listening for a few weeks. But then I zoned in on the fact that both hosts say “like” about five times during a 15 second period.
And that was it. Couldn’t listen any more. I’m one of those people that once I’ve noticed something I can ignore it.
I still recommend this podcast and the chaps do great work. But if you’re pedantic like me, be aware of the vocal trend.
Too much ideological bias and NPR style narration
Feels like a show being done by journalism undergrads who regard NPR as the ideal, both in terms of delivery and ideology. Unsubscribe.
Incorrect reporting
Different hosts over the years have consistently shown low journalistic standards.
I know this is not really a “journalism” show, but when you have a platform to describe current events you have a responsibility to your audience to be factual.
