Episode 30: Far and Away with Dr.Lindsay Stallones Marshall

This week Lindsay Marshall jumps in to talk about the Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman epic-that-wasn't: Far and Away (1992). This is an awesome talk. We talk about the process of interviewing and getting hired at a university, the myth of Irish slavery, the West on film. Lindsay is a former high school teacher so we get into the difficulties of teaching at that level and why AP US History is an absolute dumpster fire. This is a great episode.

Dr. Lindsay Marshall is an Assistant Professor of History and affiliated faculty with Native American Studies. She earned her PhD in History at the University of Oklahoma and MA in Liberal Arts from Stanford University. Before coming to higher education, Dr. Marshall spent eleven years teaching high school history/social science in California.
