This week, Emily is going off the radar back to 1863! She'll be talking to Dr. Jon Nese, an Associate Head of Penn State University's Program in Meteorology and Atmospheric Science. Dr. Nese isn't just a meteorologist; he's also studied and written about how weather influenced the American Civil War! We'll explore how different weather elements affected everything about the Gettysburg campaign, discover the surprising place where Dr. Nese found the meteorological evidence that brings this story to life, and discuss why his deep dive into 160-year-old weather records serves as a powerful reminder of just how critical reliable weather observation is in our modern world.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Greg Jenner is joined by Professor Jonathan Morris and comedian Sophie Duker to learn all about the bittersweet history of coffee.Coffee is undoubtedly one of the most popular drinks worldwide, and we consume an estimated 95 million cups of the stuff everyday in the UK alone. But where does coffee come from, and when did we start enjoying its caffeinated effects? From its origins in medieval Ethiopia and Yemen, through the coffeehouses of the Middle East and Europe, to its central importance to soldiers during the American Civil War, this episode traces the complex history of our favourite beverage. Along the way, it explores the uses people have had for coffee over the years, in religious rituals, as a stimulant to intellectual exchange, and even as a medicine. We also debunk some of the myths that have been brewed up about coffee's history. Did the Pope really call it ‘the devil's brew'? Was it discovered by an Ethiopian goatherd? And did a Dutch man really have to smuggle coffee trees out of Yemen? Listen to find out!This is a radio edit of the original podcast episode.

What does your calendar reveal about your true priorities? Jesse Cope opens with this challenging question, reminding us that our time allocation speaks volumes about what we genuinely value – whether it's God, family, or something else entirely.Diving into Revelation 19, Jesse examines Christ's righteous war against evil, establishing a critical framework: sometimes conflict becomes necessary when the alternative allows evil to flourish unchecked. This perspective provides context for understanding historical struggles like World War II and the American Civil War, while drawing parallels to contemporary moral battles that may require similar moral courage.The podcast takes a fascinating historical detour through the often-overlooked Barbary Wars, questioning why some modern narratives sanitize this chapter of American history. Jesse quotes the Tripoli ambassador's candid admission that their hostilities against American ships were religiously motivated, building toward a larger thesis about ideological incompatibility with liberty-oriented principles.Through moving accounts of Medal of Honor recipients like Harvey Curtis Barnum Jr., whose unassuming appearance belied extraordinary courage, Jesse challenges our stereotypical expectations of heroism. These stories serve as powerful reminders that we should be teaching such examples of sacrifice and bravery to our children rather than focusing exclusively on entertainment and sports trivia.The historical accounts from Fox's Book of Martyrs illustrate a sobering pattern: when any ideology – religious, political, or otherwise – obtains unchecked power, persecution inevitably follows. Jesse argues that genuine tolerance and liberty can only flourish when rooted in Christian principles that recognize human dignity and divine accountability.As the podcast concludes, Jesse calls for prayer and unity among Christians, not merely as spiritual practice but as practical strategy for preserving fundamental values and freedoms. Have you considered how your community might come together in prayer for spiritual and cultural renewal? The invitation stands – will you answer it?Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

ABRAHAM LINCOLN AND THE PULPIT:  2/8  Righteous Strife: How Warring Religious Nationalists Forged Lincoln's Union Hardcover – by  Richard Carwardine (Author) 1849 SACRAMENTO The first major account of the American Civil War to give full weight to the central role played by religion, reframing the conflict through Abraham Lincoln's contentious appeals to faith-based nationalism How did slavery figure in God's plan? Was it the providential role of government to abolish this sin and build a righteous nation? Or did such a mission amount to “religious tyranny” and “pulpit politics,” in an effort to strip the southern states of their God-given rights? In 1861, in an already fracturing nation, the tensions surrounding this moral quandary cracked the United States in half, and even formed rifts within the North itself, where anti slavery religious nationalists butted heads with conservative religious nationalists over their visions for America's future. At the center of this melee stood Abraham Lincoln, who would turn to his own faith for guidance, proclaiming more days of national fasting and thanksgiving than any other president before or since.These pauses for spiritual reflection provided the inspirational rhetoric and ideological fuel that sustained the war.

LAST SHOT IN ANGER: 1/8: Lincoln's Peace: The Struggle to End the American Civil War Hardcover – Illustrated, March 18, 2025  by  Michael Vorenberg   https://www.amazon.com/Lincolns-Peace-Struggle-American-Civil/dp/1524733172 We set out on the James River, March 25, 1865, aboard the paddle steamboat River Queen. President Lincoln is on his way to General Grant's headquarters at City Point, Virginia, and he's decided he won't return to Washington until he's witnessed, or perhaps even orchestrated, the end of the Civil War. Now, it turns out, more than a century and a half later, historians are still searching for that end. Was it April 9, at Appomattox, as conventional wisdom holds, where Lee surrendered to Grant in Wilmer McLean's parlor? Or was it ten weeks afterward, in Galveston, where a federal commander proclaimed Juneteenth the end of slavery? Or perhaps in August of 1866, when President Andrew Johnson simply declared “the insurrection is at an end”? That the answer was elusive was baffling even to a historian of the stature of Michael Vorenberg, whose work served as a key source of Steven Spielberg's Lincoln. Vorenbergwas inspired to write this groundbreaking book, finding its title in the peace Lincoln hoped for but could not make before his assassination. A peace that required not one but many endings, as Vorenberg reveals in these pages, the most important of which came well more than a year after Lincoln's untimely death.  To say how a war ends is to suggest how it should be remembered, and Vorenberg's search is not just for the Civil War's endpoint but for its true nature and legacy, so essential to the American identity. It's also a quest, in our age of “forever wars,” to understand whether the United States's interminable conflicts of the current era have a precedent in the Civil War—and whether, in a sense, wars ever end at all, or merely wax and wane.

Vorenbergwas inspired to write this groundbreaking book, finding its title in the peace Lincoln hoped for but could not make before his assassination. A peace that required not one but many endings, as Vorenberg reveals in these pages, the most important of which came well more than a year after Lincoln's untimely death.  To say how a war ends is to suggest how it should be remembered, and Vorenberg's search is not just for the Civil War's endpoint but for its true nature and legacy, so essential to the American identity. It's also a quest, in our age of “forever wars,” to understand whether the United States's interminable conflicts of the current era have a precedent in the Civil War—and whether, in a sense, wars ever end at all, or merely wax and wane.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN AND THE PULPIT:  1/8  Righteous Strife: How Warring Religious Nationalists Forged Lincoln's Union Hardcover – by  Richard Carwardine (Author) 1799 KEEL BOAT ON THE OHIO The first major account of the American Civil War to give full weight to the central role played by religion, reframing the conflict through Abraham Lincoln's contentious appeals to faith-based nationalism How did slavery figure in God's plan? Was it the providential role of government to abolish this sin and build a righteous nation? Or did such a mission amount to “religious tyranny” and “pulpit politics,” in an effort to strip the southern states of their God-given rights? In 1861, in an already fracturing nation, the tensions surrounding this moral quandary cracked the United States in half, and even formed rifts within the North itself, where anti slavery religious nationalists butted heads with conservative religious nationalists over their visions for America's future. At the center of this melee stood Abraham Lincoln, who would turn to his own faith for guidance, proclaiming more days of national fasting and thanksgiving than any other president before or since.These pauses for spiritual reflection provided the inspirational rhetoric and ideological fuel that sustained the war.

Author Joseph P. Farrell makes his first appearance on the show to uncover the hidden layers of the American Civil War you've never heard about. We discuss the strange case of mystery airships tied to the Sonora Aero Club and the cryptic art of Charles Dellschau. Farrell reveals how Lincoln's decision to issue greenbacks forced him into secret financial negotiations with Prussia, while France and England prepared for intervention—with troops staged in Mexico and Canada. Meanwhile, Russia, fresh from ending serfdom, warned the West: back the South, and we'll join the North—with warships to prove it. The conversation also explores the West's long war against the Russian Orthodox Church, religious corruption, and the deeper truth behind the phrase “those who bless Israel.” A powerful and eye-opening debut Please check out Joseph P Ferrell's Books: https://bit.ly/3GlSZYr Please subscribe to the new Tin Foil Hat youtube channel:  https://www.youtube.com/@TinFoilHatYoutube Check out Sam Tripoli new crowd work special "Black Crack Robots" now for free. https://youtu.be/_FKugOeYaLc Check out Sam Tripoli's 2nd New Crowd Work Special “Potty Mouth” on YouTube for free. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22j3Ds5ArjM Grab your copy of the 2nd issue of the Chaos Twins now and join the Army Of Chaos: https://bit.ly/415fDfY Check out Sam "DoomScrollin with Sam Tripoli and Midnight Mike" Every Tuesday At 4pm pst on Youtube, X Twitter, Rumble and Rokfin!

    About this episode:  GPS, drones, laser-guidance—all modern marvels that have served mankind in both peace and war. Nothing new, for there were creations and adaptations for a conflict contested in the 1860s; enough so that that confrontation has been called, by many, the first “modern war.”  This is the story of enterprising inventors and engineers and their ideas and machines—their taking theory and making it practical.  The ongoing marriage between innovation and war, this is the story of Science and Technology in the American Civil War.   ----more---- Some Characters Mentioned In This Episode: Joseph Bailey Henry Pleasants Richard Gatling Samuel Morse Horace Lawson Hunley   For Further Reading: Trial by Fire: Science, Technology and the Civil War by Charles D.

While educational institutions increasingly gloss over this pivotal era, Kiger's masterful storytelling brings it vividly to life through meticulously researched monthly episodes available across all major platforms.The podcast's treatment of often-neglected aspects of the war, like the Western Theater battles, demonstrates its commitment to comprehensive historical understanding. The Battle of Shiloh episode exemplifies this approach—detailing how Albert Sidney Johnston's death weakened Confederate leadership, how the victory cemented Grant and Sherman's crucial friendship, and how it opened the Mississippi River campaign that would eventually split the Confederacy. Through first-person accounts, detailed tactical explanations, and emotional depth, listeners experience history not as distant facts but as human stories with profound consequences that still resonate today.For the full experience, check out the YouTube channel featuring enhanced visuals with maps and historical photographs.

On April 12, 1862, one of the most daring and audacious events of the American Civil War took place.  It wasn't a major battle. It didn't involve armies meeting each other on the field of battle.  Instead, it was one of the first examples in military history of a raid designed to deny the enemy access to the most vital 19th-century technology: the railroad.  Learn more about the Great Locomotive Chase and how railroads became a strategic war objective on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. ***5th Anniversary Celebration RSVP*** Sponsors Newspapers.com Get 20% off your subscription to Newspapers.com Mint Mobile Cut your wireless bill to 15 bucks a month at mintmobile.com/eed Quince Go to quince.com/daily for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order!

This week, i do an archaelogical dig into 160 years of baseball history in Minnesota. In many ways, Minnesota was an early leader in team sports being played before large crowds, when the Dakota and Ojibwe tribes would play native lacrosse games, as far back as the 1600's, long before European settlers arrived. As for baseball, their timeline stretches back to 1857, when citizens from the town of Nininger, establish the first baseball team in state history. Soon after the conclusion of the American Civil War, various teams begin to sprout up in the Land Of 10,000 Lakes, most notably in Minneapolis-St. Paul, as well as many outlier towns like Red Wing, Fairbault, Minnehaha, St. Croix and Hastings, riding the wave of the young sport's growth and popularity. 160 years later, the region's baseball history continues to be written by the Minnesota Twins, who bring the Major League brand to the state in 1961, after Calvin Griffith and the Washington Senators relocate to the Twin-Cities. I also present the history and construction of their current Home ballpark. Target Field, which stands as a testament to the Twins vision of providing a cathedral, that is not only on the cutting edge of baseball stadium aesthetics and functionality, but also for sustainable practices. Demonstrating a commitment to enviromental responsibility, and providing an inspiration to the Twins fans, to be champions for the very planet that sustains us all. #NinningerNine #NorthStarBaseBallClub #IgnatiusDonnelly #CaptainRolinOllin #VermillionClubOfHastings #MinneapolisNine #RedWingCrescentClub #SaxonNine #OlympicNine #BanJohnson #CharlesComiskey #LexingtonPark #AthleticPark #NicolletPark #MetropolitanStadium #HubertHumphreyMetroDome #TargetField #RodCarew #HarmonKillebrew #MudcatGrant #TonyOliva #LymonBostick #KentHrbek #KirbyPucket #JoeMauer #MikeKelly

Top Democrats Call For Nationwide Uprising As Podesta Plan To Launch A New American Civil War Goes Into High-Gear! Gen. Flynn & Alex Jones Who Both Predicted That The Deep State Would Trigger A Color Revolution This Summer Are On-Air NOW Laying Out Key Intel

The Battle of Gettysburg was a three-day battle in the American Civil War, which was fought between the Union and Confederate armies between July 1 and July 3, 1863, in and around Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The battle, won by the Union, is widely considered the Civil War's turning point, leading to an ultimate victory of the Union and the preservation of the nation. The Battle of Gettysburg was the bloodiest battle of both the Civil War and of any battle in American military history, claiming over 50,000 combined casualties.It had the highest total number of casualties in any single Civil War battle. The brutal combat and close-quarters fighting (especially at places like the Wheatfield, Devil's Den, and Pickett's Charge) contributed to enormous losses in a short time. The town and surrounding farms became overwhelmed with the dead and wounded, many of whom were never properly identified or buried, adding to the haunting legacy.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/monster-fuzz--4349429/support.

Someone once asked, "Why is Horizon?"And that's exactly what Connor, Matt and Frank are here to...also ask. Welcome back to our Kevin Costner series for Part 2, where we cover Chapter 1. Today we get revenge on Matt for making everyone watched the Postman to bring him Costner's opus: Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1, the first 3 glorious hours of what is expected to be a 12 hour, 4-movie franchise (I hear in part 3 we're going to meet the Fire Navi).The first installment in the titular film series, it features an ensemble cast of Costner, Sienna Miller, Sam Worthington, and Giovanni Ribisi, with Jena Malone, Abbey Lee, Michael Rooker, Danny Huston, Luke Wilson, Isabelle Fuhrman, Jeff Fahey, Will Patton, Tatanka Means, Owen Crow Shoe, Ella Hunt, and Jamie Campbell Bower in supporting roles. The film follows several characters navigating life in the Midwestern territories amid the American Civil War.

Amidst the financial doldrums that followed the American Civil War, Charlestonians struggled to reconstruct their politics, rebuild their economy, and repair a neglected streetscape. Budget constraints compelled officials of the late 1860s and 1870s to perpetuate old-fashioned paving habits and to recycle outdated materials, but a few novel additions to the public right-of-way cheered the spirits of local drivers, pedestrians, and velocipedestrians.

From Ancient Rome to the Antebellum South to modern Libya, Nick Pell unshackles the truth about slavery across human history on this Skeptical Sunday.Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by writer and researcher Nick Pell!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1149On This Week's Skeptical Sunday, We Discuss:Slavery has existed throughout human history across virtually all agricultural societies. The transatlantic slave trade represents just one episode in a long history of human bondage that continues today.The American Civil War wasn't primarily fought as a humanitarian mission to free slaves, but was a conflict between two economic systems: agricultural slavery in the South versus industrial free labor in the North.While the 13th Amendment technically abolished slavery and involuntary servitude in the United States after the Civil War, a loophole has been exploited to create a prison-industrial complex where private companies and government entities profit from cheap or unpaid prison labor.Modern slavery affects approximately 40-50 million people globally, with India having the highest number (11 million), followed by China and North Korea. These include debt bondage, forced labor, and human trafficking.We can help combat modern slavery by supporting reputable organizations working to free enslaved people.
