Welcome to Class of '03, a podcast about the year 2003 and all the ways it has shaped our world.
There's really no denying it: 2003 was an exceptional year in its cultural, political, and even scientific events. From the beginning of the Iraq War to the election of Arnold Schwarzenegger, the SARS epidemic, to America's Next Top Model, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, the OC, The Da Vinci Code, Beyonce and Justin Timberlake both releasing solo records, indie rock coming out of the shadows to the founding of Myspace and the Supreme Court declaring sodomy statutes unconstitutional. The list goes on and on, all pointing at the same, glaring MISSION ACCOMPLISHED sign: there's a lot to unpack about 2003. Which is what we're doing on this podcast.
Thanks for listening!
