Podcasts about Alexander Hamilton

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for June 3, 2025 is: tutelage • TOO-tuh-lij • noun Tutelage is a formal word that refers to the instruction or guidance especially of an individual student by a teacher. Tutelage may also refer to an act or process of serving as guardian or protector. // Under the tutelage of his high school swim coach, Luis has greatly improved his times at meets. // The company is relying on the expert tutelage of its new director to increase profits. See the entry > Examples: "[Hercules] Mulligan helped with [Alexander] Hamilton's education, including placing him under the tutelage of William Livingston of the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University), who was a leading local American revolutionary. ... Mulligan is said to have deeply influenced Hamilton towards engagement in revolutionary activity." — Brian Maye, The Irish Times, 2 Mar. 2025 Did you know? Tutelage comes from the Latin verb tueri, meaning "to look at" or "to guard." When it first appeared in English at the turn of the 17th century, this word was used mainly in the protective sense of tueri; writers would describe serfs and peasants of earlier eras as being "under the tutelage of their lord." Over time, however, the word's meaning shifted away from guardianship and toward instruction. This pattern of meaning can also be seen in the related nouns tutor, which shifted from "a guardian" to "a private teacher," and tuition, which now typically refers to the cost of instruction but which originally referred to the protection, care, or custody by a parent or guardian over a child or ward.

Biographer Ron Chernow's acclaimed books include Alexander Hamilton, adapted into the Broadway musical Hamilton, and Washington: A Life, which received the Pulitzer Prize for Biography. With his new book Mark Twain, Chernow illuminates the colorful and complex life of the fame-seeking journalist, satirist, performer and political pundit. America's first literary celebrity, Twain was unique among his contemporaries for grappling so fully with the legacy of slavery, including with his most famous book, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.  On May 21, 2025, Ron Chernow came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco for an onstage conversation with Jonathan Bass. 

Who is the most unsung hero of the American Civil War and Reconstruction? According to Zaakir Tameez, it's the abolitionist statesmen Charles Sumner. In his eponymous new biography of Sumner, Tameez portrays Sumner as a model of "moral ambition" who sacrificed a promising corporate law career to fight for racial justice. As slavery's fiercest opponent, Tameez describes Sumner as the “conscience” of mid 19th century America. And he argues that Sumner's famous Senate caning in 1856, his influence on Civil War-era legislation, his likely homosexuality, and his role mentoring young civil rights lawyers all should represent models of moral leadership for 21st century Americans. five key takeaways* Moral Ambition Over Self-Interest: Charles Sumner abandoned a lucrative corporate law career and prestigious academic prospects at Harvard to fight for racial justice, demonstrating how personal sacrifice can serve greater moral purposes.* Early Integration Pioneer: More than 100 years before Brown v. Board of Education, Sumner partnered with young Black attorney Robert Morris in 1849 to argue for school integration in Massachusetts, showing his ahead-of-his-time commitment to racial equality.* Economic Critique of Slavery: Unlike many abolitionists who focused on moral arguments, Sumner viewed slavery as an economic system where less than 0.5% of the population (major slaveholders) dominated American politics and resources at everyone else's expense.* The Power of Mentorship: Sumner was part of an extraordinary mentorship chain from Alexander Hamilton to Chancellor Kent to himself to Moorfield Storey (first NAACP president), illustrating how moral leadership passes between generations.* Contemporary Relevance: The interview connects Sumner's example to modern "moral ambition," suggesting that today's young professionals should consider using their talents for social justice rather than purely personal advancement.

I recently read a book called President Hamilton, a fascinating “what if” imagining Alexander Hamilton surviving his duel with Aaron Burr and becoming president. It was an optimistic take on how history might have changed—but it got me thinking about the “what if” game we all play in our own lives. What if I had made different choices? Would things be better? But dwelling on those questions rarely brings peace. Instead, it often leads to regret and discontent. Jesus knew we'd struggle with this. That's why He told His disciples, “Take heart; I have overcome the world.” Not just the world around us, but the doubts and regrets within us. The good news is this: our past is forgiven, our future is secure, and even now, Jesus is at work—redeeming, restoring, and bringing good out of our mess. So rather than asking “what if,” we can rest in the truth: Christ is risen, and He has truly overcome the world.

With Republicans in power across all branches of the federal government, Democrats are looking for ways to regain trust and learn how to build things. One book they're looking toward is Marc Dunkelman's: ⁠⁠Why Nothing Works: Who Killed Progress―and How to Bring It Back⁠⁠.  In this episode, Marc joins Mosheh to discuss how the Democratic distrust of power since the 1960s has led to stagnation and public distrust, paving the way for Donald Trump's election as someone who promises to make things actually happen. He explains how we got from the era of Robert Moses reshaping New York and FDR's New Deal, to a modern day with infrastructure in disrepair nationwide. Plus, some broader historical context: how the dueling mindsets at the heart of progressivism—a need for strong executive action and a mistrust of power— reflects a broader American conflict that goes all the way back to the days of Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton. Mosheh Oinounou (⁠⁠@mosheh⁠⁠) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist. He has 20 years of experience at networks including Fox News, Bloomberg Television and CBS News, where he was the executive producer of the CBS Evening News and launched the network's 24 hour news channel. He founded the @mosheh Instagram news account in 2020 and the Mo News podcast and newsletter in 2022.

In 1794, John Taylor of Caroline launched a direct assault on Alexander Hamilton's entire financial regime - the national bank, the debt, the funding system, the whole machine. He called it a “political papacy,” a new aristocracy built on paper money, perpetual debt, and lawless power. On this episode, learn about Taylor's forgotten takedown of the system that laid the foundation for the largest government in history. The post BLASTING Hamilton's National Bank: John Taylor's Forgotten Takedown first appeared on Tenth Amendment Center.

The biographer Ron Chernow has written about the Rockefellers and the Morgans. His book about George Washington won a Pulitzer Prize. His book about Alexander Hamilton was adapted into a hit Broadway musical. Now, in “Mark Twain,” Chernow turns to the life of the author and humorist who became one of the 19th century's biggest celebrities and, along the way, did much to reshape American literature in his own image.On this week's episode of the podcast, Chernow tells the host Gilbert Cruz how he came to write about Twain and what interested him most about his subject.“The thing that triggered this Mark Twain mania in me was more Mark Twain the platform artist, Mark Twain the political pundit, Mark Twain the original celebrity, even more than Mark Twain the novelist or short story writer,” Chernow says. But at the same time, “I felt that he was very seminal in terms of bringing, to American literature, really bringing the heartland alive — writing about ordinary people in the vernacular and taking this wild throbbing kind of madcap culture, of America's small towns in rural areas, and really introducing that into fiction.” Unlock full access to New York Times podcasts and explore everything from politics to pop culture.

Med brask og bram og papp-plakater lanserte Donald Trump den 2. april høye tollsatser for en lang rekke land og sa at det ikke ville bli noen unntak. Akkurat …I ukens episode av Finansredaksjonen, en podkast som lages av oss i DN, snakker vi om Trumps overraskende tilbaketrekking fra en toll på 145 prosent på kinesiske varer mandag. Det nye tallet er 30, hvor 20 prosent er tilknyttet Kinas rolle i fentanyl-produksjon. I Kina feires resultatet av forhandlingene i Genève i helgen – som egentlig var tenkt som kun en samtale mellom landenes finansministre for å bedre relasjonen mellom Kina og USA – som en seier. Det er forståelig. Kinas eksport til USA har nesten bremset helt opp i perioden etter 2. april. Nå kan containerne fylles og skipene gå fra kinesiske havner til amerikanske igjen. Men hvem vet for hvor lenge. Det er jo bare ellevilt hvordan Donald Trump gikk høyt på banen med sin feiring av «Liberation day» i april, for så å gi unntak etter unntak i ukene etterpå. Usikkerheten han har skapt har allerede gjort skade.Men ingen kan si at tollsatsene kommer overraskende. Børskommentator Thor Christian Jensen har fått et tilsendt et klipp fra et intervju Donald Trump gjorde med talkshowdronningen Oprah Winfrey på 90-tallet, hvor han bruker mye av den samme argumentasjonen for å innføre toll som nå. I ukens episode snakker vi om Trump, reaksjonen til aksjemarkedene, USAs første finansminister Alexander Hamilton og gir deg råd om hva du bør gjøre med investeringene dine. Hosted on Acast.

New York Times bestselling author Lauren Willig is our guest! Join us to discuss her new novel, The Girl from Greenwich Street. The Girl from Greenwich Street is a gripping historical thriller based on a real 1799 murder case that united bitter political rivals Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr in an explosive courtroom drama. When young Elma Sands disappears just before Christmas and is later found dead, public outrage targets a local carpenter—forcing Burr and Hamilton into an uneasy alliance to defend him. As the trial unfolds against the backdrop of a high-stakes election, the novel weaves mystery, ambition, and betrayal into a shocking final revelation about the woman at the heart of it all.

For last 100 years, the neighborhood of Harlem in New York City has stood as the capital of Black America and the capital of the global African diaspora. Yet Harlem is so big and so varied that it contains smaller sections with distinct identities and histories of their own.

Today, if you venture into the basement of a certain clothing store in the Soho neighborhood of NYC, you'll find an unusual sight: an old well. This well is tied to the first recorded murder trial in the United States – it's a story of a 22-year-old woman, her suspicious suitor, and a legal team consisting of none other than Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr.    Author Lauren Willig joins Dylan to tell him the story. The case also inspired Lauren's newest book: The Girl from Greenwich Street: a Novel of Hamilton, Burr, and America's First Murder Trial.

In this episode of ITR Live, Chris Hagenow and John Hendrickson deliver a packed discussion on Iowa's legislative session, focusing on budget targets, property tax reform, and a comprehensive historical take on tariffs and trade policy.Chris begins by praising Iowa's legislature for its self-imposed spending limits, which have kept spending well below legal thresholds and positioned the state for bold income tax cuts, including the move to a 3.8% flat tax. The hosts contrast this fiscal discipline with local governments, many of which continue to push for higher spending and call for new revenue streams—often without serious efforts to reduce costs.They also provide updates on the property tax reform bill still under discussion at the Capitol. The conversation urges local governments to follow the state's example by enacting self-imposed spending restraints, especially as constituents continue to push for relief amid high property tax burdens.In the second half, John offers an extensive and engaging history lesson on tariffs in American politics, from Alexander Hamilton and Abraham Lincoln to Warren Harding, Coolidge, and now Donald Trump. With the Trump administration's recent announcement of new tariffs—with a temporary pause on some—the hosts explore the economic and strategic rationale for tariffs, why free trade isn't always fair, and how manufacturing job losses and trade deficits have reshaped conservative thinking.Wrapping up, they reflect on Smoot-Hawley's misunderstood legacy, the global trade imbalance, and a growing bipartisan interest in rethinking how America approaches international trade. Plus, there's a trivia challenge: Can you guess who said, “The taxpayers literally groan under layer upon layer of tax units”?

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:05pm- While defending the Trump Administration's tariff policy, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent mentioned that Alexander Hamilton once used tariffs to raise revenue and protect domestic industries. Rich thinks the comparison to Hamilton is a bit far-reaching—however, people claiming tariffs will lead to a modern “Great Depression” are also mistaken. Don't expect these tariffs to be around long enough to create economic devastation—they're a negotiating tactic. 4:30pm- Amie Parnes—Senior Political Correspondent at The Hill & New York Times Best Selling Author—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss her newly released book, “Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House.” In the book, Parnes documents how aides to Kamala Harris were plotting behind the scenes to replace Joe Biden as the 2024 Democrat candidate even before he withdrew. Parnes notes that people close to Biden knew he had lost a step, but they didn't believe his disastrous June debate with Donald Trump would go as poorly as it ultimately did. Plus, Parnes reports Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi were advocating for a strategy to bypass Harris as the nominee—while Harris's proponents half-jokingly suggested, “at least she has a pulse.” Harris's team even had judges ready to swear her into office in the event President Biden died or resigned. And how did Harris ultimately decide to select Tim Walz as her running mate over Josh Shapiro? Weekday afternoons on Talk Radio 1210 WPHT, Rich Zeoli gives the expert analysis and humorous take that we need in this crazy political climate. Along with Executive Producer Matt DeSantis and Justin Otero, the Zeoli show is the next generation of talk radio and you can be a part of it weekday afternoons 3-7pm.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (04/03/2025): 3:05pm- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump announced “Liberation Day”—explaining that for decades the United States economy has been punished by onerous tariffs placed on American-made goods being exported internationally. Trump signed an executive order placing “reciprocal tariffs” on imported goods. The policy will take effect at midnight on April 5th. The reciprocal tariffs will be half of what trading partners are currently charging the U.S. A 10% universal baseline tariff will be applied to all countries considered to be acting in bad faith. Will the Trump Administration remove tariffs on countries that remove tariffs on American-made goods? Trump stated: “To all foreign presidents, prime ministers, kings, queens, ambassadors, and everyone else who will soon be calling to ask for exemptions to these tariffs, I say—terminate your own tariffs, drop your barriers, don't manipulate your currencies…and start buying tens of billions of dollars of American goods.” 3:15pm- In response to the Trump Administration's reciprocal tariff announcement, the S&P 500 fell 4.6%—with American companies Nvidia and Apple shedding a combined $470 billion in market value. However, the Trump Administration remains optimistic—with General Motors, for example, announcing an increase in domestic manufacturing. 3:30pm- David Gelman—Criminal Defense Attorney, Former Prosecutor, & a Surrogate for Donald Trump's Legal Team—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest editorial for The Hill, “Judges, stay in your lane and stay out of politics.” You can read the full article here: https://thehill.com/opinion/judiciary/5220817-federal-judges-political-influence/. 3:50pm- While appearing on Fox News, in response to the Trump Administration's tariffs to protect American manufacturing, Ford Chief Policy Officer Steve Croley announced that the automotive company will extend “employee pricing” to all customers through June 2nd. 4:05pm- While defending the Trump Administration's tariff policy, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent mentioned that Alexander Hamilton once used tariffs to raise revenue and protect domestic industries.

And how did Harris ultimately decide to select Tim Walz as her running mate over Josh Shapiro? 5:00pm- Speaking with reporters aboard Air Force One, President Donald Trump downplayed fears of potential economic repercussions for his “reciprocal tariffs” on foreign nations. He noted that there are no tariffs on companies who choose to build their products in the United States. President Trump also discussed potentially extending TikTok's reprieve from a nationwide ban—and whether China may allow for the sale of the social media application in exchange for tariff relief. 5:40pm- Paula Scanlan—Former Swimmer for the University of Pennsylvania & Advocate for Women's Sports— ...
