Hey #AlaskaTwitter! I’m Kaitlin Armstrong, and I’ve spent the last two years working on “The Alaska Myth.” It’s a documentary podcast I created that explores the myths that shape how Alaskans view our history and ourselves (1/5)
Tonight at 6 at Double Shovel! Hope to see you there.
Missing The Alaska Myth? I’ll be at @akhumanities Culture Shift next month discussing the podcast’s thesis: how frontier logic produces dead-end futures, and why it’s foreclosing ours. March 5th at Double Shovel Cider!

Kaitlin Armstrong's podcast, The Alaska Myth, peels back the layers of settler myths to reveal the truths behind Alaska’s 'Last Frontier' image. Read more about how she's re-framing how we think about Alaskan identity in this week's Creative Currents. bit.ly/3ZuHdCp

In short: the podcast is very time, research, and resource intensive to make, meanwhile life has been life-ing.
We will have more episodes out, I’m just not sure of the timeline.
