Our take on Dramas podcast
Purple Heart Warriors tells the story of the 442nd regiment—Japanese American soldiers who fought in WWII but often get left out of the history books. With Will Sharpe starring and Iris Yamashita writing, this six-part series is one you won't want to miss. It's powerful, easy to follow, and shares an important part of history.
And if you haven't yet, check out Fukushima. It's all about the 2011 nuclear disaster and will keep you hooked.
