In today’s episode, we’re revisiting one of the darkest chapters of the 20th century - Cambodia’s Killing Fields, 50 years later. This isn’t just a history lesson - it’s a story of how a radical utopian dream became a nationwide nightmare. We’ll break down how Pol Pot rose to power, why wearing glasses could get you killed, and how millions were erased in the name of ideology. But we’ll also explore how Cambodia is remembering, rebuilding, and reclaiming its story - through art, education, and even TikTok. This episode is equal parts horror, history, resilience, and relevance - so whether you’re genocide-aware or just wondering how a country heals from silence, let’s make sense of Cambodia’s past… sorta.
