Theodore Roosevelt's 1916 speech "America for Americans" serves as the backbone for a profound exploration of national identity, undivided loyalty, and spiritual commitment in this thought-provoking episode. Jesse Cope deftly weaves Roosevelt's century-old wisdom with timeless biblical truths from Colossians 3, revealing how both patriotism and faith require singular dedication."We had one country. We bore proud allegiance to one flag." Roosevelt's words echo across time as Cope examines how hyphenated identities—whether national, ethnic, or even denominational—undermine the unity essential for America's survival. The parallel between being wholly American and wholly Christian emerges as the episode's central theme, challenging listeners to examine where their primary loyalties lie.Practical wisdom abounds as Cope addresses the daily choices that reveal our true commitments. Are we merely checking boxes with our Bible reading without reflection? Do we profess love for our spouses without making time for them? Do we claim patriotism while dividing our allegiances? These penetrating questions cut through pretense to expose the gap between our professed values and lived realities.Against the backdrop of growing international tensions and domestic division, Cope reminds us of Lincoln's prescient warning that if destruction comes to America, "we must ourselves be its author and finisher." The solution lies not in further fragmentation but in embracing our common identity founded on Christian principles—the only sustainable foundation for liberty and national flourishing.This episode serves as both warning and encouragement, challenging listeners to set aside lesser identities and embrace what truly matters: wholehearted commitment to God, family, and country. Make time each day for what truly matters – your relationship with God, your spouse, and your commitment to America. Our future depends on it.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe
Theodore Roosevelt once warned that "hyphenated Americanism" represents "moral treason to the republic." In this soul-stirring episode, we explore how this century-old warning speaks directly to our modern crisis of divided loyalties and fractured identities.Do you approach your faith with the same intentional planning you bring to other important areas of life? Most successful people don't simply wake up and "see what happens" - they have detailed plans and disciplined routines. Yet when it comes to our spiritual lives, we often take a casual, unstructured approach. Drawing from both Scripture and historical wisdom, we examine how creating intentional habits around prayer, Bible study, and spiritual reflection can transform our relationship with God.The heart of this episode centers on the complete forgiveness offered through Christ. Reading from Colossians 2, we discover the liberating truth that Christ has "canceled out the certificate of debt" and "nailed it to the cross." Through a vulnerable personal story about a pastor who repeatedly responded to altar calls because he couldn't believe his past was truly forgiven, we confront the struggle many Christians face in accepting the completeness of God's grace.Roosevelt's powerful 1916 speech provides a framework for examining how our various identities - political, denominational, cultural - can sometimes undermine our primary commitments to Christ and country. When we place any identity above our identity in Christ or allow group loyalties to override our commitment to America's founding principles, we engage in a form of moral treason that weakens both our faith and our nation.This episode challenges you to examine where your primary loyalties lie and to embrace John Quincy Adams' wisdom: "Duty is ours, results are God's." By measuring your spiritual growth against your own past rather than comparing yourself to others, you can focus on steady progress in your relationship with Christ rather than perfectionism or spiritual competition.Join us for this thought-provoking exploration of faith, identity, and national purpose that will leave you reconsidering how you approach both your spiritual journey and your role as an American citizen.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe
What does it mean to have undivided loyalty? In this thought-provoking episode, I explore the powerful connection between our faith commitments and our national identity through the lens of Theodore Roosevelt's 1916 speech rejecting "hyphenated Americans."The journey begins with a hard look at our daily priorities. When we examine how we actually spend our time—scrolling social media, watching entertainment, or engaged in other distractions—versus how much time we devote to prayer, Scripture, and spiritual growth, what does that reveal about our true values? These small daily choices form the foundation of our larger loyalties.Drawing from Colossians 1, we explore how Paul emphasizes the supremacy of Christ and the importance of giving Him first place in everything. This spiritual principle parallels Roosevelt's passionate call for citizens to be "Americans and nothing but Americans." Both perspectives challenge us to examine where our true allegiances lie and what it means to have an undivided heart.The heart of this episode centers on Roosevelt's powerful declaration that he would dismiss anyone from his cabinet who identified themselves as a hyphenated American. "If they had severally designated themselves and had acted as one a German-American, another a French-American, another an Irish-American, another a British-American... not one of them would have remained an hour in my cabinet." This historical stance raises profound questions about our modern identity politics and the fragmentation of both national and spiritual loyalties.What would it look like to reclaim an undivided American identity while also embracing an undivided Christian identity? Whether you're wrestling with questions of faith, citizenship, or personal priorities, this episode offers historical wisdom and spiritual insight to help navigate these complex waters. Join me in exploring what it means to be wholly committed to both God and country in an age of divided loyalties.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe
Theodore Roosevelt's prophetic warning against "hyphenated Americanism" takes center stage as Jesse Cope explores the dangerous fragmentation of American identity. Drawing from Roosevelt's powerful 1916 speech, Jesse examines how the modern obsession with divided identities—whether African-American, Asian-American, or any other hyphenated designation—ultimately leaves us belonging nowhere completely, neither fully American nor fully connected to our ancestral heritage."You're either American or you're not," Jesse asserts, challenging listeners to consider how political forces use these divisions to separate us along racial, ethnic, and cultural lines while simultaneously promoting a false unity based on the notion that all values, principles, and beliefs are equally valid. This two-pronged attack undermines the foundations of American identity and the Judeo-Christian principles upon which the republic was built.The episode weaves this national identity crisis with spiritual lessons from the Book of James, particularly its warnings about the misuse of wealth and our responsibility to care for those in need. Jesse shares a transformative piece of wisdom received during Marine Corps training: "Find somebody that's struggling more than you and help them." This simple yet profound advice reminds us that focusing on others not only benefits them but also lightens our own burdens—a principle that applies equally to our spiritual lives and our national unity.Through a surprising comparison between cats and dogs, Jesse offers marriage insights that parallel our relationship with God and country. While cats make you feel like they're doing you a favor by accepting your affection, dogs make you feel like your attention is the greatest gift in the world—a lesson in selflessness and genuine appreciation that marriages desperately need.Whether examining our identity as Americans or as Christians, Jesse argues that our primary allegiance must be undivided. Just as we are Christians first before any denomination, we must be Americans first before any hyphenated identity. Join the conversation about faith, identity, and the path toward true unity in both our spiritual and national lives.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe
Allison Marsh, an associate professor at the University of South Carolina and a historian of technology, authored an insightful article in IEEE Spectrum about the first-ever virtual meeting held in 1916 by IEEE's predecessor, AIEE. This pioneering event connected 5,100 engineers across multiple cities telephonically. In a discussion with David, together they explore the highlights of this groundbreaking transcontinental gathering. The historical significance of this event and its striking parallels to modern virtual meetings remain relevant today. In 2024, IEEE celebrated its 140th anniversary - and Allison underscores the present-day importance of incorporating social elements and creativity into virtual meetings to enhance engagement, much like our engineering forefathers did over a century ago - with musical interludes and splashy keynote speakers.

When you were a kid, were you ever scared to go in the swimming pool in case you might get eaten by a shark? Or just get in the bathtub? Hell, one time I even managed to freak myself out just from laying on a waterbed. This is mainly thanks to Steven Spielberg and a 25-foot mechanical shark called Bruce, but “Jaws” wasn't made in a vacuum. Shark attacks are, thankfully, very rare, but over a century ago there were a series of attacks so shocking and so close together that they cemented the shark as a figure of sharp-toothed horror in the American psyche. The serial killer of the sea, you might say. Basically what we're sayin' here folks, is it's SHARK WEEK on True Crime Campfire. Join us for the terrifying true story of the deadly 1916 shark attacks that inspired the movie "Jaws." This one's not for the faint of heart!

Someone reached out on the website with an interesting question. They wanted my take on the Militia Acts of 1793 & 1903 and the National Defense Act of 1916. Specifically, he wanted to know about the constitutionality of the militia system within the United States, so I took a look. What I found was interesting, but maybe not what some people would have expected.
We look at three winters on the Somme front: from 1914 to 1916.

The fantastic voice of Kay Starr starts us off with: Rock and Roll Waltz(1954), Changing Partners(1954) and Wabash Cannon Ball(1948). The Three Kays with The Cuckoo. A popular English group in the 1950s. Cuckoo is probably a description of a lot of the rest of the content of the show. Albert Burdon with Albert before the means test(1931). I do quite like it. There are genuine gags and its quite subversive. The Street Singer with Trouble in paradise. Arthur Tracey was born Abba Avrom Tracovutsky in Ukraine in 1899. He originally used the name The Street Singer to avoid being banned from Vaudeville for appearing on the radio under his own name. Suzette Tarri performs The Boarding House. She was, what we'd call now, an observational comedian. Had a long career from the 1920s to 50s. Surely record of the week: Jack Hodges, the Raspberry King with Everything is fresh today. Eat more fruit he says, blowing raspberries! Thirteen Woman from Billy Haley. A sexiest dream. Who knew the dropping of an H bomb could be so positive. Bizarre. Victor Theremin was born Lev Therman in St Peterburgh in 1996 and was the inventor of the first commercially produced electronic instrument- The Theremin. He was also involved in espionage. Working with the notorious Soviet NKVD developing listening devices. The Theremin has been used in such films as Spellbound, The Day the Earth stood still and Hellboy. Next a 1916 version of Another little drink. Miss Louie Brooks, Jack Henty( the prolific Ernest Pike) and Charlie Collins. Charlie Collins was a songwriter of this era and earlier. Indeed it wrote some of the best known songs from the golden age of the British music halls- Dont dilly dally on the way, Boiled beef and carrots and Any old Iron? I can find no record of him performing though. Surely this is the same man? We finish with the Canadian born W V Robinson and Freaks of the mouth organ from 1926. Utter nonsense!!

Granaterne falder omkring os. De styrter i gruset, sender dynger af mudder op i luften og får jorden til at ryste under os. Det gælder for alt i verden om at holde nakken bøjet og hovedet nede. Fjendens maskingeværer står klar og skyder efter alt, der kommer til syne over gravene. Sådan har det været i ugevis, hvis ikke endnu længere. Det er helvede på jord. Et helvede, som ingen før har kunnet forestille sig, og som ingen nu kan forestille sig en ende på. Denne episode handler om de danskere, der deltog i Slaget ved Somme under Første Verdenskrig i 1916. Det er en fortælling om modige danskere, der gav sit liv for en håbløs kamp, der ikke var deres egen, og hvis skæbne har efterladt dybe spor i det Danmark, vi kender i dag.Vært: Jeanette Varberg, museumsinspektør og arkæolog på Nationalmuseet.

This week we take our first walk across one of the 'Forgotten Battlefields' of the Great War, the Boar's Head close to the village of Richebourg in Northern France. Here we discover the story of the Southdown's Battalions, or Lowther's Lambs, and uncover what a terrible sacrifice Sussex made here on 30th June 1916.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/oldfrontline)
