Want to learn how to write an essay? Study The Memory Palace. Nate DiMeo, the podcast’s host, is a master of the form. Though, he says he’s not an essayist.
Essayist, storyteller… either way, Nate zooms in on the small details of historical events then expands them into big stories with universal themes. In fact, that’s part of the beauty of The Memory Palace – Nate’s uncanny ability to recognize the profound in the small. Sometimes they’re simple stories about dancing or manufacturing hats. Other times they’re complicated pieces on race like “Notes on an Imagined Plaque…” (my fav episode) featured on this HowSound.
