The Aftermath is not a podcast about the insurrection itself, or about how we got there. It’s a podcast about what happened next - how our democracy is attempting to right itself in the face of an existential threat. Who is being criminally prosecuted, and who isn’t. How is Congress taking action-and what is it ignoring. And how are our institutions telling the story-and who gets to tell it.
To set the scene for this project we are going to spend one episode-this one-on the events of the day itself. How what happened on January 6 revealed the difficult questions that people have spent the last year trying to answer.
This is Season 1, Episode 1: Day Zero, Ground Zero.
