Rob Denning and Jimmy Fennessy host Working Historians, a podcast series where we interview history professionals about their academic and professional backgrounds, their historical research, and, generally, what they do all day. Season 1 lasted for four years, and then Rob put the show on haitus, but we're coming back for Season 2, which will be bigger and better than ever. In the trailer for Season 2, Rob and Jimmy share what they hope to do in upcoming episodes. New full episodes will resume in May or June.
