Les mer The Civic Flame

The Civic Flame is where history meets hope. Hosted by a law and politics professor, it takes you inside the story of the U.S. Constitution—the debates that shaped it and the meaning it holds today. In a time of division, The Civic Flame offers something different: dialogue that sparks conversation instead of conflict. This is a call to revive thoughtful civic discourse and keep the flame of democracy burning bright.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
