I think a lot of newer folk might not know, having come here by referral. You can find her easily: just type in Heather Cox Richardson in the search box and she should just pop up. The letters are in her posts, and have a different discussion group than substack.
And the treasure: look under the Video tab for her talks (she doesn't like to call them lectures, but they make for wonderful listening and learning). She does them live, usually twice a week, believe it or not, and each is around an hour, often a little more. Tuesday at 4, and I think Thursday at 2 (Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong about the time on this one- it changed recently with Heather's schedule and I'm not sure I've got it right).
One is a talk based on questions solicited from the folks who follow her. She selects several and stitches together a story with her answers. The other is a straight history talk on subjects she chooses, sometimes around the history behind current events and sometimes straight history, primarily in her specialty, the history of American politics. She is a terrific story-teller.
Welcome: you are just about to step into history wonderland.
She also does a podcast with another historian (and I apologize that her name escapes me: I'm never strong on names and I am tired*), the link to which is often posted on her FB page.
(* This just means that as soon as I go to bed, the other name will pop into my head)
