POPULARITY
Welcome to the next Heart of the Matter Radio/Podcast. Alice Roosevelt's reputation reverberates through history as a woman of charm, rebellion, and wit. Behind her "Princess Alice" personal lay an uneasy relationship with her father, Theodore Roosevelt who became president. We examine the reason why in this video. Join us as we journey into the past.
I dette afsnit af Historiepodcasten med Katrine og Marie dykker vi ned i livet hos den amerikanske præsident Theodore Roosevelts ældste datter, Alice Roosevelt – en kvinde, der nægtede at blive sat i bås. Med cigaretter på taget af Det Hvide Hus, en kæleslange i tasken og et benhårdt politisk netværk, var Alice både elsket af offentligheden og frygtet af sine fjender. Vi følger hende fra ungdommens narrestreger til den modne kvindes indflydelse i Washington – og spørger: Hvor langt kan man gå uden at blive FOR skandaløs?
My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Janis Daly, author of the book The Path Beneath Her Feet and creator of #31titleswomeninhistory, along with four additional authors from the list. The compiled list of historical fiction represents thirty-one titles to read, discover, learn, and celebrate women who've made history, individually or collectively. Their achievements languish in the shadows, awaiting authors to write their stories and readers to embrace them. According to Janis, developing the list wasn't easy because there are far more books than she could include. But this is how she made her final decision: Had to be historical fiction Had to be written by a woman Looked for diversity in authors – cultural, type of publishing, and name recognition Looked for diversity in the subject – cultural, setting, field of recognition Ratings on Goodreads Here is the list of books Janis has included for the 31 days of March in 2025: Akmaral by Judith Lindbergh - Amazon Warrior Women, Ancient History Asia American Daughters by Piper Huguley - Progressive political daughters and friends, Alice Roosevelt, Portia Washington, early 1900s America Can't We Be Friends by Denny S.

Welcome to episode 89! I am back from my podcast hiatus! I didn't mean to be away so long! And though I was absent from the podcast, if you follow me on socials and my newsletter, so many things have happened. It's been over a year, friends, where there was quite a bit of change in our household. It was a year of deadlines, a move this summer, and getting set up—it was a whole big thing, having to get used to new schedules, while trying to have balance. We all know how that's so hard.But I'm happy to be back, and hopefully will now be in a groove in which I can get some fantastic authors and creators into this virtual studio. I've have missed this space, missed connecting with other folks in this avenue.But to get down to business! I'm so excited to introduce Piper Huguley, where we discussed American Daughters. Piper G. Huguley's biographical historical fiction, By Her Own Design: a novel of Ann Lowe, Fashion Designer to the Social Register tells the inspiring story of the Black fashion designer of Jackie Kennedy's wedding dress. By Her Own Design was a Booklist top 100 Editor's Choice selection for 2022, was named one of the top 100 books of 2022 in Canada by the Globe and Mail newspaper and was selected as the historical fiction winner for 2022 by the American Library Association's Reading Council.She is also the author of Sweet Tea, a contemporary romance about food and history (of course) and the author of two historical romance series: “Migrations of the Heart”, about the Great Migration and “Home to Milford College”. Her next historical fiction book, American Daughters (2024), is the story of the decades-long interracial friendship between Alice Roosevelt and Portia Washington, the rebel teenage daughters of President Theodore Roosevelt and Booker T. Washington, respectively. She is a literature professor at Clark-Atlanta University and blogs about the history behind her novels at http://piperhuguley.com . She lives in Atlanta, Georgia with her husband and son. In this conversation, we discussed the idea of a “way” into a story and Piper's research process. We talked about historical women and their passions and Piper's thoughts about historical accuracy. Finally, she talked about who of the two characters she endeared to the most.***Preorder LETTERS FROM THE TRAIL, out on February 25, 2025Note: some links are affiliate linksContact Tif at tif@tifmarcelo.comPlease check out her website for podcast submissions

When we talk about female pioneers we typically don't think about having a pet snake or smoking on the roof of the white house. Well, good news, in this episode Kelin and Leah discuss presidential daughter, fashion icon, and prankster, Alice Roosevelt.
In the early 20th Century, there was no bigger celebrity than first daughter, Alice Roosevelt, daughter of President Theodore Roosevelt. She captured the attention of the nation with care-free, hard-partying ways and eccentricities, like her habit of carrying around a pet snake. Songs were written about her and a color was even named in her honor. On top of that, she married a future Speaker of the House and had an enduring affair with another influential member of Congress. It was a big deal when 60 Minutes landed an interview with Alice in her later years -- and she didn't hold back when dishing about some other famous individuals, including her famous cousins Eleanor and Franklin.For more episodes like this one, search for "60 Minutes: A Second Look" and follow the show, wherever you get your podcasts.

(Antevíspera de la maratón masculina de los Juegos Olímpicos) Nunca ha habido en la historia una carrera como lo fue aquella. Partió el 30 de agosto de 1904 a las tres de la tarde, la hora más calurosa del día, con una temperatura de 32 grados centígrados que azotó sin piedad a los 32 corredores que participaron. Adelante iba un grupo de hombres a caballo escoltando a los entrenadores, periodistas, jueces y policías que iban en una pequeña caravana de automóviles que no dejaban de levantar polvo debido a lo secas que estaban las carreteras destapadas. Y para colmo de males, había un solo punto de avituallamiento con agua disponible en todo el recorrido: un pozo al costado de la carretera en la marca de los 20 kilómetros de los 40 en total. A los 16 kilómetros, uno de los corredores comenzó a vomitar y tuvo que abandonar. Otro corredor, que inicialmente iba a la cabeza, tragó tanto polvo que sufrió una hemorragia estomacal casi fatal. Sólo 14 de los 32 terminaron la carrera. El primero de los 14 en cruzar la línea de meta fue el estadounidense Frederick Lorz. Alice Roosevelt, hija de su presidente Teodoro Roosevelt, le colocó una corona de laurel, pero al rato el presunto ganador confesó que a los 14 kilómetros había comenzado a sufrir calambres y se había subido a un automóvil en el que había recorrido los 18 kilómetros siguientes antes de saltar del vehículo y correr hasta la meta. Lo había hecho como una broma —insistió—, sin ninguna intención de mantener la farsa. ¡No faltaba más!, ¿verdad? Bueno, también sucedió que en esa maratón de los Juegos Olímpicos de San Luis, Misuri, celebrados en los Estados Unidos de América, el dudoso ganador fue Thomas Hicks, a quien sus entrenadores, al verlo flojo, le dieron claras de huevo con estricnina —¡la misma que se usa como veneno para ratas, que casi acaba con él]!—, y luego lo llevaron hasta la línea de meta, ayudándolo a mover las piernas y desplazarse. Hicks no sólo marcó el tiempo más lento de la historia de las maratones olímpicas, sino que llegó a ser el primer atleta olímpico en usar sustancias destinadas para mejorar el rendimiento. Y finalmente, por si todo eso fuera poco, al corredor que acabó noveno lo persiguió una manada de perros salvajes durante un kilómetro y medio, y al atleta cubano Félix Carvajal —¡que corrió con zapatos de vestir!— el hambre lo hizo detenerse en un huerto para comer unas manzanas que resultaron podridas y le produjeron calambres de estómago que lo obligaron a acostarse en el costado de la carretera, donde tomó una siesta, ¡y después de todo terminó en cuarto lugar!1 De modo que cuando pensemos que estamos pasando un mal día, bien pudiera servirnos comparar nuestros contratiempos con los de los corredores olímpicos aquel azaroso día maratónico, y recordar que Dios nuestro Señor, Creador de cielo y tierra que «nunca duerme ni se deja rendir por el sueño», está siempre dispuesto a acudir en nuestra ayuda... si se lo pedimos con fe sincera.2 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 «El maratón de San Luis: la carrera más extraña en la historia Olímpica», Comité Olímpico Internacional, 29 noviembre 2020 En línea 27 enero 2024; John Hanc, «The Worst of the Modern Olympics Was Held ... ?» [¿El peor de los Juegos Olímpicos modernos se celebró...?], Newsday, 25 agosto 2004 En línea 27 enero 2024; John Gettings, «Distance runner Fred Lorz’s Olympics disgrace in 1904», Fact Monster, «Memorable Olympic Moments: Lorz of the Rings», 21 febrero 2017 En línea 27 enero 2024. 2 Sal 121:2,4 (PDT); Mt 7:7-8; 21:22; Mr 11:22-24; 2Ti 1:5; Heb 4:16; 13:6; Stg 1:5-8

President Theodore Roosevelt had many challenges during his career… corruption in the New York police force, the creation of the Panama Canal , the Spanish American war, protecting the Grand Canyon and other national monuments, and groundbreaking anti-trust legislation But the greatest challenge he faced was a volcano in a blue dress, his eldest daughter - flouter of convention, spicy of demeanor, and perhaps the world's first media superstar…who admirers across the world came to call America's “Princess Alice.” Join us on our Field Trip to Austria in June of '24!

Inheriting her father's need for attention, she went from pranking White House dinner parties with her pet snake (Emily Spinach) to becoming a political institution in Washington D.C., whose favor and advice was sought by insiders. Alice was beloved by the press and foreign leaders including the Dowager Empress of Japan and Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany. But her ambitions to return to the White House were thwarted by rivalries and difficult choices, and she lived a life touched by tragedy. Let's sip some cocoa and hear the story of a feminist icon who defied convention, set trends, and held onto petty grudges.

During Theodore Roosevelt's presidency—from 1901 to 1909, when Mark Twain called him the most popular man in America—his daughter Alice Roosevelt mesmerized the world with her antics and beauty. Alice was known for carrying a gun, a copy of the Constitution, and a green snake in her purse. When her father told her she couldn't smoke under his roof, she climbed to the top of the White House and smoked on the roof. She became the most famous woman in America—and even the world—predating Princess Diana and Jackie Kennedy as an object of public obsession. As her celebrity grew, she continued to buck tradition, push against social norms, and pull political sway behind the curtain of privilege and access. She was known for her acerbic wit and outspoken tendencies which hypnotized both the social and political world. Today's guest is Shelley Fraser Mickle, author of “White House Wild Child: How Alice Roosevelt Broke All the Rules and Won the Heart of America.” We explore what it would have been like to be a strong-willed, powerful woman of the 20th century aughts.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3101278/advertisement

“I can do one of two things, I can be President of the United States or I can control Alice. I cannot possibly do both.”—Theodore Roosevelt During Theodore Roosevelt's presidency—from 1901 to 1909, when Mark Twain called him the most popular man in America—his daughter Alice Roosevelt mesmerized the world with her antics and beauty. Alice was known for carrying a gun, a copy of the Constitution, and a green snake in her purse. When her father told her she couldn't smoke under his roof, she climbed to the top of the White House and smoked on the roof. She became the most famous woman in America—and even the world—predating Princess Diana and Jackie Kennedy as an object of public obsession. As her celebrity grew, she continued to buck tradition, push against social norms, and pull political sway behind the curtain of privilege and access. She was known for her acerbic wit and outspoken tendencies which hypnotized both the social and political world.

Theodore Roosevelt once said that he could only do one of two things: be president or control his daughter Alice. He insisted that he couldn't do both at the same time. Alice Roosevelt Longworth was, in many ways, a mirror image of her father: she was fiercely intellectual and never backed down from a fight. In her youth, she was the idol of millions of young women. In time, she became a DC power broker who could make or break powerful men's careers. In this episode, we interview Professor Stacy A. Cordery about this legendary figure.
