The SchmizmAuthor: The Schmizm
This is a breakup podcast. It's about schismshow things got from how they were to where they are and who was in between. The format: I do some research on a split in historyfrom ideas, to nations, to relationshipsand then I call up a friend and tell them about it. Hopefully their reactions are fun and hopefully I've mastered the subject enough to not sound TOO stupid. Disclaimer: I do this for fun and not as a part of my work as an academic historian. Given the nature of the show, I'm bound to get things wrong.

Ireland Part 3 - Troubles Brewing
Saturday, 6 May, 2023
After two years of sitting on my hard drive unedited, the Schmizm brings you the thrilling conclusion to the Ireland series! My recorded intro didn't come through for some reason, so ignore the weird quiet minute at the beginning. In this episode we cover the 20th century from the Easter Rising to the Good Friday agreement. There could probably be another whole episode on Brexit, but you should just find someone who knows that situation better and listen to them.
