Donald Smith In Hindsight -- a historian's podcast

In the process of adding some podcasts to the list (at right) of sites worth following , I discovered that Donald Smith, longtime professor at the University of Calgary and noted historian of indigenous histories long before they were fashionable ... has a podcast.  

I have not listened to it yet, but it seems to be an original mix of historian's memoir and historian's historical reflections. There are 21 episodes to date, "relaxed, with an abundance of anecdotes," and most run less than 30 minutes. It's called "In Hindsight" and it's on the Ontario Historical Society website.

The OHS's other podcast is about the glories of the Canadian crown... but I'll let you find that one for yourself.
