    Starlings: The Gilded Age Invasion
    Mar 19 2025

    Have you ever hated a bird? Pigeons might come to mind, but America's most hated bird is the European Starling and they got their start on the continent in the 1880s. The environmental history of the Starling is a story about hubris and the unintended consequences of human meddling with non-native species. Author Mike Stark joins me to discuss his latest book on the topic.


    Essential Reading:


    Mike Stark: Starlings: The Curious Odyssey of a Most Hated Bird (2025).

Compelling and Insightful Podcast

After completing the HBO series "The Gilded Age", I wanted to learn more about the time period and found this podcast. I caught up on the entire series in about 2 weeks. Each episode covers a new topic about the era and many of the topics are completely new to me (like trash service - who would have thought that trash service could be interesting?). The guest scholars are interesting and insightful. Michael Patrick Cullinane is amazing. I wish I was able to sit in one of his history classes. I am truly grateful to this podcast for unleashing my inner history nerd!
