I've been viewing houses this past fortnight, so I thought I'd share my anecdotal 2p on the state of the London property market.I'm looking in Brockley, SE4, which, if you don't know it, used to be rough AF, but is now where all the cool kids are. The area has benefited from the various London rail line extensions – you can be in Shoreditch or Canary Wharf in 15 minutes; the Jubilee and Elizabeth lines are a similarly short step away – and that has attracted the slay crew to the area. The road links though are still horrendous though, made worse by 20mph speed limits and bus lane misallocation of essential road space. The drive to west London is interminable.Brockley has a good stock of beautiful detached, semi-detached and terraced Victorian houses. For example: With its proximity to Greenwich and the river docks, it was once a wealthy area, though, like most of south-east London, it got bombed to heck in the war.There are plenty of nice parks too. One of them, Hilly Fields, was modelled on Hampstead Heath, and there are many gorgeous houses in the roads running off it. Not quite Hampstead gorgeous, but getting there.Brockley also has the highest density of cemeteries in London, if you fancy dying any time soon, it's highly convenient. It is, I gather, London's most haunted area.It is only a bit stabby. Nothing like as bad as neighbouring Lewisham. (Maybe “only a bit stabby” will one day become part of estate agents' jargon, perhaps to replace “vibrant”. I can't believe how normalised stabbing now is that I'm talking like that.)The stabbiness is offset, however, by the plethora of nice restaurants, cafés, bars, craft ale breweries, the farmers' market, mini-festivals, pilates studios et al. I understand, in Browns, the area boasts London's best coffee and, in Babur, its best Indian restaurant. (Technically Babur is in Honor Oak, but, like England and many of its foreign sporting greats, we'll claim it as our own.)I shot this vid from the steps up to the station.Brockley feels younger and more up-and-coming than the once-cool areas to the west like Queen's Park, Kensal Rise, Clapham and so on, probably because of its easy access to east London. (A lot of people from Hackney move down here.)I moved here begrudgingly and skint in 2015 and have grown to really like it.But what about the housing market?I've known markets in which estate agents don't give you the time of day, there are so many prospective buyers, but – perhaps because they know I am an unencumbered buyer – the agents are maybe not quite all over me, but certainly on my case: lots of emails, phone calls and the rest of it. That indicates it's more of a buyers' market.But, while I would describe the housing market here as slow, it is not dead. Stuff has been going under offer in the two weeks I've been looking, though rarely at asking.With the costs of moving – Stamp Duty is 10% above £925k, and 12% above £1.5m, plus an extra 5% if you own another property – buyers have got to really want to buy.Sellers, meanwhile, have to really want to sell, which often entails reducing their asking prices. Stuff which is unrealistically priced is staying on the market a long time. Look at this one (actually up the road in Honor Oak):This is a 5,000-square-foot property, not so nice inside, but with access to a 2-acre private garden behind with its own tennis court – quite something in London. From £2.5 million to £1.75 million and they still can't shift it. (It needs a lot of money spending on it.)On the other hand, there don't seem to be many forced sellers – people who can't make their payments – and we won't get any house price crash, long-awaited or not, until that is a reality.I imagine Brockley, as a young, trendy area, is busier than other parts of town, but that is my overall feel: slow, but not dead.I've looked at a few family houses. I can't really comment on flats, but I gather there is an oversupply of 2-bed flats across London, and it is really hard to shift them. I'm not sure if this applies to Brockley or not.It doesn't feel as expensive as it did around 2019–2022 (realised sales prices are a fraction lower, but there is obviously currency debasement to consider too), but nor does it feel super cheap. We're a long way off where we were in, say, 2013, even though grander parts of London – Kensington and Chelsea, for example – are back at those 2013 levels.Where does the housing market go from here? It all depends on two things: interest rates and Stamp Duty.Britain's zombie housing market, brought to you by Stamp Duty.If rates go lower, the market will not collapse. There won't be the forced sellers. We'll continue as we are: stagnant. If rates go higher, the market is in trouble.But get rid of Stamp Duty, and you'd have a flurry of activity across the country tomorrow. People aren't moving because of the amount of dead money involved. Stamp Duty has immobilised the country.If you're buying a two-million-pound house, you will pay £153,750 in stamp duty. Cash. Money you've already paid tax on once. You can't borrow the money. You have to be extremely rich, or extremely desperate for a home, to be willing to pay a £150k one-off tax of this kind. Most would rather avoid paying it, so they don't move.You will pay more if you are not a UK resident.If you happen to own another property – which most people in that wealth bracket will, either their first flat they never sold, a property they inherited, or a home in the country – and the house you are buying is not your main residence, the tax rises to £253,750. A quarter of a million quid.That's why houses in Kensington and Chelsea no longer sell. EDIT: My mate, whose kids have now flown the nest, sent me this: "We live in a 4 floor house, 2 floors we don't use, I haven't been to the top floor for about 5 years (seriously). We would love to move and downsize but makes no sense as the costs of buying a new house would use up all the gain on downsizing . IE We just end up with a smaller house."This happens all the way down the scale. Kirstie Whatsit off the telly was tweeting about it the other day.My mother's friend, who is in her 70s, lives in a 2-bed flat two floors up in Wandsworth worth maybe £700,000. She is worried about climbing the stairs at her age, and wants to move to another 2-bed flat. She will pay £25,000 in Stamp Duty on top of all her other moving costs. She doesn't have 25 grand to throw away.The result is this nearly dead market. Britain's zombie housing market.Stamp Duties were one of the taxes the ignited the American Revolution. If only we had muskets today …The biggest villains in all this are former Chancellor Gordon Brown for first raising Stamp Duty on property transactions (before him it just one per cent on all properties over £60,000), and, worst of all, George Osborne for raising the rates to today's ludicrous levels. Rather than address the root causes of unaffordable housing – fiat money, artificially low interest rates, improper measures of inflation and dumb planning laws – he blamed the market, and attacked it with Stamp Duty. But all of Jeremy Hunt, Rishi Sunak, Sajid Javid, Philip Hammond and Alistair Darling must take their share of the blame for failing to do anything about it, when they had the chance. (We'll give Kwasi Kwarteng and Nadhim Zahawi a pass on the grounds they didn't have the gig for long enough).Osborne, Brown et al have given birth to the zombie situation we have now. They have immobilised the country in the process. Government. Yet again. 0 stars. Would not use again.It's enough to make you a libertarian.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks to Kimberly Mitchell to emphasize that mental health recovery is personal, requires self-compassion, and is possible through conscious effort, self-reflection, and a commitment to personal growth. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/kimberly-mitchell    Highlights from today's episode include:  Kimberly Mitchell  13:09 because with limiting beliefs, those are often not even our own voices, right? We grow up being told things, Kimberly Mitchell  17:01 I'll tell you, really, what it comes from is the knowledge, the awareness that I am in control of my entire experience. Manon Bolliger  in Bowen College, the methodology has a structure to it, and it really made me think how, when people learn and start they they're fundamentally following the structure, and as the practitioner becomes more intuitive,   ABOUT KIMBERLY MITCHELL: Kimberly Mitchell is a mental health advocate, veteran, and transformational leader dedicated to empowering individuals and small businesses. Growing up in a household where independence was a necessity, she excelled academically, earning numerous awards, including the Citizenship Medal from the Daughters of the American Revolution. Her resilience was tested when she lost her father at 16, but she channeled her determination into service, enlisting in the Air Force. As the only woman in her Vehicle Maintenance training class, she set a new standard by earning the highest test scores and later served in Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm, achieving the rank of E-4 Sergeant. Transitioning into civilian life, Kimberly pursued a career in training and leadership development, working across multiple industries, from technology rollouts to government initiatives. She played a pivotal role in the 2010 Census Project, leading the development of training materials for the first-ever digital data collection. Her work with the Rochester Schools Modernization Program led to the creation of an innovative small business training initiative, impacting local entrepreneurs and serving as a model for other municipalities. Simultaneously, she explored entrepreneurship, running event planning and photo booth businesses before pivoting to a thriving six-figure training business. Despite professional success, Kimberly faced personal challenges that led to a transformative self-discovery journey. Seeking answers through the VA health system, she was diagnosed with mild depression, which became the catalyst for developing the Journey to Joy Personal Transformation System. This breakthrough allowed her to reclaim her happiness, reinforcing her belief that joy is a powerful force for change. Now, she dedicates her time to helping others break free from limiting beliefs and external dependencies, ensuring they recognize their own potential. A founding member of the Greater Rochester Black Business Alliance and an active board member of ROCEDC, Kimberly is deeply committed to community development. She believes that self-sufficiency and joy are the keys to transformation, a message she amplifies through her training programs, mentorship, and advocacy. Living in a community once defined by industrial success and now marked by economic struggle, she is determined to inspire others to reclaim their power and create the life they desire. Her personal mission remains simple yet profound: to make a positive impact on people she may never meet.

Have you ever wondered why the dollar sign is used for both U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos? We've had students ask if ATMs in Mexico give out dollars or pesos, all because of that same “$” symbol. In this episode, we break down the real history behind the sign—from colonial-era Spanish pesos to silver mines and the American Revolution—and reveal how the U.S. didn't create the symbol, but actually adopted it from Latin America.Key Takeaways:The “$” symbol likely originated from the abbreviation “PS” for pesos, not from U.S. dollars.Mexico—and many other countries—used the symbol before the U.S. did.While the symbol is shared globally, each currency it represents is distinct and independent.Relevant Links And Additional Resources:Boost your confidence in real-life Spanish conversations with our Spanish Immersion RetreatsLevel up your Spanish with our Podcast MembershipGet the full transcript of each episode so you don't miss a wordListen to an extended breakdown section in English going over the most important words and phrasesTest your comprehension with a multiple choice quizIf you enjoy Learn Spanish and Go, please consider subscribing, rating, and reviewing our podcast on Apple Support the show

What does liberty entail? How have concepts of liberty changed over time? And what are the global consequences? Liberty as Independence: The Making and Unmaking of a Political Ideal (Cambridge UP, 2025) surveys the history of rival views of liberty from antiquity to modern times. Quentin Skinner traces the understanding of liberty as independence from the classical ideal to early modern Britain, culminating in the claims of the Whig oligarchy to have transformed this idea into reality. Yet, with the Whig vision of a free state and civil society undermined by the American Revolution of 1776, Skinner explores how claims that liberty was fulfilled by an absence of physical or coercive restraint came to prominence. Liberty as Independence examines new dimensions of these rival views, considering the connections between debates on liberty and debates on slavery, and demonstrating how these ideas were harnessed in feminist discussions surrounding limitations on the liberty of women. The concept of liberty is inherently global, and Skinner argues strongly for the reinstatement of the understanding of liberty as independence. Illustrates the connections between philosophical debates surrounding liberty and the sociopolitical contexts in which they took place Provides a comprehensive analysis and bibliography of rival ways of thinking about liberty Explores the contribution of the American Revolution to discussions on the idea of liberty Quentin Skinner is Emeritus Professor of Humanities at Queen Mary University of London. He was at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton between 1974 and 1979, and was Regius Professor of History at the University of Cambridge between 1996 and 2008. He is the author and editor of numerous books on Renaissance and Modern Intellectual History, and the recipient of many awards including the Wolfson Prize for History and a Balzan Prize. Previous publications include the two-volume study, The Foundations of Modern Political Thought (Cambridge, 1978), Liberty before Liberalism (Cambridge, 1998) and, most recently, From Humanism to Hobbes: Studies in Rhetoric and Politics (Cambridge, 2018).

After the American Revolution, the United States economy was in trouble. One solution proposed to solve the crisis was the establishment of a national bank.  The bank wasn't just an economic issue; it also sparked one of the first constitutional debates in the nation's history.  Fast-forward several decades, and the United States found itself debating the exact same issue, with very similar results.  Learn more about the first and second Banks of the United States, why they were created, and how they ended on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

When we talk about the American Revolution, we're often talking about the patriots and revolutionaries who rose up and fought back against the British, especially in Massachusetts where so much of the movement took root. In Weston, there's a museum telling a story that you may not have heard that often: the story of the Loyalists, or Redcoats, who wanted to stay loyal to Britain. Katie Campbell, the Executive Director of the Golden Ball Tavern Museum in Weston, talks with Nichole about their new exhibit focusing on colonial espionage and sheds light into the life of a prominent Loyalist.This segment is the sixth interview in our series "Revolutionary Roots", where we take a closer look at the stories, people, events, and local ties that connect New England to the nation's upcoming 250th anniversary in 2026.

This Memorial Day, the America's Founding Series honors Dr. Joseph Warren who was one of the Revolution's earliest martyrs whose legacy has faded from public memory. Before Washington commanded armies, Warren stood at the heart of Boston's resistance, rallying patriots with his words and ultimately giving his life at Bunker Hill. Join Professor Nick Giordano as he brings this forgotten hero's story to life. His passion, sacrifice, and enduring message that the liberty of “millions yet unborn” rests on courageous action. This is the story of a doctor who became a symbol of freedom and paid the ultimate price before America was even born. Episode Highlights: The untold story of Dr. Joseph Warren's rise from physician to revolutionary leader How Warren's actions set the Revolution in motion, including the midnight ride and the siege of Boston A powerful Memorial Day tribute to one of America's first fallen patriots who gave his life for liberty

The Fraunces Tavern was a favored watering hole for those Founding Fathers who lived here in New York before and during the Revolutionary War. The Fraunces Tavern Museum is now celebrating that history with its new exhibit, "Path to Liberty: The Emergence of a Nation." The exhibit contains objects that help tell the story of the American Revolution in NYC, and in the Fraunces Tavern specifically. Scott Dwyer, executive director of the Fraunces Tavern Museum, and collections manager Lisa Goulet, discuss the history, the exhibit and what it means to run a working restaurant in a historical landmark.

On November 17th, 2002, 23 years ago, Rick Atkinson appeared on the Booknotes television program to discuss his book, "Army at Dawn." This was the first of three books Atkinson called the "Liberation Trilogy," a full history of the European theater of World War II, which is a total of 2,512 pages, including notes and indexes. Beginning in 2019, Rick Atkinson switched trilogies. This time, it's the history of the American Revolution. In this episode of Booknotes+, we are repeating the 2002 interview, which has substantial background on Rick Atkinson's life and writing experience. During next week's episode, we will talk with him about his second book on the Revolution, "The Fate of the Day." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

What does liberty entail? How have concepts of liberty changed over time? And what are the global consequences? Liberty as Independence: The Making and Unmaking of a Political Ideal (Cambridge UP, 2025) surveys the history of rival views of liberty from antiquity to modern times. Quentin Skinner traces the understanding of liberty as independence from the classical ideal to early modern Britain, culminating in the claims of the Whig oligarchy to have transformed this idea into reality. Yet, with the Whig vision of a free state and civil society undermined by the American Revolution of 1776, Skinner explores how claims that liberty was fulfilled by an absence of physical or coercive restraint came to prominence. Liberty as Independence examines new dimensions of these rival views, considering the connections between debates on liberty and debates on slavery, and demonstrating how these ideas were harnessed in feminist discussions surrounding limitations on the liberty of women. The concept of liberty is inherently global, and Skinner argues strongly for the reinstatement of the understanding of liberty as independence. Illustrates the connections between philosophical debates surrounding liberty and the sociopolitical contexts in which they took place Provides a comprehensive analysis and bibliography of rival ways of thinking about liberty Explores the contribution of the American Revolution to discussions on the idea of liberty Quentin Skinner is Emeritus Professor of Humanities at Queen Mary University of London. He was at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton between 1974 and 1979, and was Regius Professor of History at the University of Cambridge between 1996 and 2008. He is the author and editor of numerous books on Renaissance and Modern Intellectual History, and the recipient of many awards including the Wolfson Prize for History and a Balzan Prize. Previous publications include the two-volume study, The Foundations of Modern Political Thought (Cambridge, 1978), Liberty before Liberalism (Cambridge, 1998) and, most recently, From Humanism to Hobbes: Studies in Rhetoric and Politics (Cambridge, 2018).

If you were to ask most people what year they associate with the American Revolution, it would be 1776. That was the year that the Continental Congress declared Independence.  However, 1776 wasn't the start of the revolution, nor was it the end of the revolution. In fact, if it hadn't been for the Declaration of Independence, it would have gone down as a pretty horrible year for the revolution.  For my money, the most interesting year of the revolution was actually the first year, 1775.  Learn more about 1775 and the start of the American Revolution on the 1775th episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

As the American Revolution broke out in New England in the spring of 1775, dramatic events unfolded in Virginia that proved every bit as decisive as the battles of Lexington and Concord and Bunker Hill in uniting the colonies against Britain. Virginia, the largest, wealthiest, and most populous province in British North America, was led by Lord Dunmore, who counted George Washington as his close friend. But the Scottish earl lacked troops, so when patriots imperiled the capital of Williamsburg, he threatened to free and arm enslaved Africans—two of every five Virginians—to fight for the Crown. Virginia’s tobacco elite was reluctant to go to war with Britain but outraged at this threat to their human property. Dunmore fled the capital to build a stronghold in the colony’s largest city, the port of Norfolk. As enslaved people flocked to his camp, skirmishes broke out. “Lord Dunmore has commenced hostilities in Virginia,” wrote Thomas Jefferson. “It has raised our countrymen into a perfect frenzy.” With a patriot army marching on Norfolk, the royal governor freed those enslaved and sent them into battle against their former owners. In retribution, and with Jefferson’s encouragement, furious rebels burned Norfolk to the ground on January 1, 1776, blaming the crime on Dunmore. The port’s destruction and Dunmore’s emancipation prompted Virginia’s patriot leaders to urge the Continental Congress to split from Britain, breaking the deadlock among the colonies and leading to adoption of the Declaration of Independence. Days later, Dunmore and his Black allies withdrew from Virginia, but the legacy of their fight would lead, ultimately, to Abraham Lincoln’s 1863 Emancipation Proclamation. Chronicling these stunning and widely overlooked events in full for the first time is today’s guest, Andrew Lawler, author of A Perfect Frenzy: A Royal Governor, His Black Allies, and the Crisis that Spurred the American Revolution. He offers a new perspective on the American Revolution that reorients our understanding of its causes, highlights the radically different motivations between patriots in the North and South.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's America's Founding Series on The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano explores story of Luis de Unzaga, the Spanish Governor of Louisiana who played a quiet yet powerful role in America's fight for independence and may have been the first to coin the name “United States of America.” His use of this term, as opposed to the 13 colonies, signified a bold assertion of unity, sovereignty, and nationhood. It was a declaration that these were no longer fragmented colonies under British rule, but a single, self-governing nation determined to shape its own destiny. While not American, Unzaga acted as a crucial patriot to the cause, helping legitimize the birth of a nation on the world stage. Discover how this overlooked Spanish governor helped shape America's name and destiny. Episode Highlights: Luis de Unzaga's vital covert support for the Patriot cause, including early arms shipments and financial aid. Compelling evidence suggests Unzaga was one of the first officials to use the term "Estados Unidos Americanos" (United States of America), potentially influencing its adoption by George Washington and the Founding Fathers. Why foreign allies like Unzaga mattered just as much as battlefield victories in securing American independence.  

Part 1 Novus Ordo Seclorum by Forrest Mcdonald Summary"Novus Ordo Seclorum" is a comprehensive study by Forrest McDonald that delves into the philosophical and historical underpinnings of American democracy, particularly focusing on the influences of Enlightenment thought and the Founding Fathers. The title itself, which translates to "New Order of the Ages," reflects the ambition of the American Revolution to create a new system of governance that deviated from the traditional monarchic and authoritarian structures prevalent in Europe. Key Themes and Ideas:Influence of Enlightenment Philosophy: McDonald highlights how the Enlightenment era introduced ideas of liberty, republicanism, and individual rights, significantly influencing the American Founding Fathers. The text examines how this philosophical backdrop shaped the core documents and principles of American governance, including the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.Federalism and Constitutional Design: The book discusses the delicate balance the Founding Fathers sought to achieve between federal and state powers. McDonald analyzes the debates surrounding the creation of the Constitution and how the checks and balances were intended to prevent tyranny and ensure the protection of individual freedoms.The Role of History and Ideology: McDonald places American history within a broader ideological context, arguing that the unique American system cannot be fully understood without recognizing its historical roots. He serves up a narrative that illustrates how previous political theories—especially those of European origin—were adapted and reinterpreted in the American setting.The Evolution of the American Government: The text also covers the evolution of American democracy, exploring how the principles laid out by the Founding Fathers have been challenged and reinterpreted over time. McDonald reflects on the legacy of those original ideas and how they resonate in contemporary political discussions.Critique of Modern Democracy: In his critique of modern iterations of democracy, McDonald argues that while the original design was revolutionary, it has been distorted by various political trends and pressures. He emphasizes the need for a return to foundational principles to revitalize American democracy. Conclusion:"Novus Ordo Seclorum" offers a thorough historical examination of the American democratic system, emphasizing the philosophy behind its creation and its ongoing significance. McDonald presents a narrative that is both scholarly and accessible, aimed at a readership interested in understanding the complexities of American governance and its philosophical foundations.Part 2 Novus Ordo Seclorum AuthorForrest McDonald is a notable American historian, particularly known for his work on the American Founding and the history of political thought in the United States. His book "Novus Ordo Seclorum: The Intellectual Origins of the Constitution" was published in 1985. This work delves into the philosophical and historical roots of the U.S. Constitution, exploring the influences of various Enlightenment thinkers on the Founding Fathers. Other Notable Works by Forrest McDonald:"The American Presidency: An Intellectual History" (1993) A comprehensive examination of the evolution of the presidency and its role in American democracy."We the People: The Economic Origins of the Constitution" (1958) This book discusses the economic factors that influenced the drafting and ratification of the Constitution."A Constitutional History of the United States" (1982) A detailed account of the development of constitutional law and government in the U.S."The Founding of New England: The Puritan Theocracy in Its First Generation" (1936) Examines the establishment of New England colonies and their...

The first step to tyranny is always the same: silence your opposition. Once they take your voice, everything else comes easy. That's exactly what the British Empire did throughout the American Revolution. Using seditious libel as their legal foundation, they repeatedly attacked the rights to speak, print, and assemble. On this episode, we expose how what we now call cancel culture was nothing new. The Founders lived under it. And they fought back. The post Silenced! The Founders' WAR on Cancel Culture EXPOSED! first appeared on Tenth Amendment Center.

Dr. Robert F. Smith, Provost of Valley Forge Military College, delivers a lecture titled "Washingtonburg Arsenal and its Role in Military Manufacturing in the American Revolution" at the United States Army Heritage and Education Center (USAHEC). The lecture explores the critical role played by the Washingtonburg Arsenal in providing munitions and artillery for the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War. Dr. Smith, a noted historian of the period, will draw upon his extensive research and his recently published book, Manufacturing Independence: Industrial Innovation in the American Revolution, to shed light on this often-overlooked aspect of the fight for American independence.

In this episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts Alisha Searcy and Kelley Brown, a Massachusetts U.S. history and civics teacher, interview Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Rick Atkinson, author of The British Are Coming: The War for America, Lexington to Princeton, 1775-1777. Mr. Atkinson explores the rise and fall of British imperial power in North America, the radical leadership of the American patriot Samuel Adams, and the early military struggles of General George Washington and the Continental Army. He discusses the brutal battlefield realities faced by Continental soldiers, the pivotal roles of Lafayette and the French alliance, and the ideological stakes of America's War for Independence. As the nation marks the 250th anniversary of the April 1775 Battles of Lexington and Concord, Atkinson reflects on the Revolution's lasting lessons about civic sacrifice, liberty, and the meaning of American democratic ideals. In closing he reads a passage from his new book, The Fate of the Day: The War for America, Fort Ticonderoga to Charleston, 1777-1780.

Clay and frequent guest Lindsay Chervinsky discuss the American Revolution in a “live” podcast recording in Vail, Colorado. Was George Washington a great military strategist? How vital was Jefferson's Declaration of Independence when it was written? Why weren't women incorporated as full citizens — as Abigail Adams suggested — when America re-constituted itself in the 1770s and 1780s? Was what happened in those dramatic years a true revolution — or merely a separation from the mother country England? How important was Thomas Paine's pamphlet Common Sense? This program was the first time Clay and Lindsay had met in person and one of the few live audience recordings of Listening to America. This podcast was recorded live on March 27, 2025.

What did friendship between men and women look like in the decades following the American Revolution? Could emotional closeness and intellectual kinship flourish outside of marriage— and without scandal? In this episode, we revisit our earlier conversation with historian Cassandra Good, author of Founding Friendships: Friendships between Men and Women in the Early American Republic. Building on our recent exploration of love and advice in 1690s England, we take a closer look at how early Americans navigated the shifting social norms of gender, intimacy, and platonic relationships.

In this episode of America's Founding Series, Professor Nicholas Giordano tells the extraordinary but often overlooked story of Robert Morris & Haym Salomon: The Men Who Financed American Freedom. While the Revolution was fought with muskets and courage, it was won with money, and these two patriots provided it. From Salomon's imprisonment by the British to the desperate scramble for $20,000 that saved the Yorktown campaign, this episode reveals how their financial sacrifices helped secure American independence. Without Morris and Salomon, the Revolution may have collapsed before victory was ever possible. Professor Giordano reveals how these forgotten patriots risked everything for liberty and why their names deserve a place alongside America's most celebrated founders. Episode Highlights: The dramatic moment when George Washington demanded, “Send for Haym Salomon,” to save the Yorktown campaign. How Robert Morris created a financial system from scratch to sustain the Revolution and died in debt for it. The little-known story of Salomon's arrest, espionage, and tireless fundraising efforts under British surveillance.

The Jack Carr Book Club April 2025 selection is THE UNVANQUISHED by bestselling author Patrick K. O'Donnell.THE UNVANQUISHED pulls back the curtain on a little-known shadow war that raged alongside the Civil War's better-known battles. At its center: Lincoln's special forces, the Jessie Scouts—Union soldiers who disguised themselves in Confederate uniforms to carry out daring raids, intelligence gathering, and high-risk missions behind enemy lines.Through vivid storytelling and never-before-published firsthand accounts, O'Donnell shines a light on the Scouts' deadly cat-and-mouse game with Mosby's Rangers, uncovering espionage operations, plots to kidnap Abraham Lincoln, and a postwar proxy fight in Mexico. Patrick K. O'Donnell is a combat historian, public speaker, and the bestselling author of 13 critically acclaimed books spanning from the American Revolution to Iraq. He is a leading authority on special operations and irregular warfare, having embedded with troops in Fallujah and advised on projects like BAND OF BROTHERS and MEDAL OF HONOR. His research blends archival discovery with thousands of oral history interviews, bringing lost stories back to life with intensity and precision.FOLLOW PATRICKFacebook - @patrickkodonnellX - @combathistorianWebsite - https://patrickkodonnell.com/index.html FOLLOW JACKInstagram - @JackCarrUSA X - @JackCarrUSAFacebook - @JackCarr YouTube - @JackCarrUSA SPONSORSCRY HAVOC – A Tom Reece Thriller https://www.officialjackcarr.com/books/cry-havoc/Bravo Company Manufacturing - BCM Stock MOD3:https://bravocompanyusa.com/bcm-stock-mod-3-black/  and on Instagram @BravoCompanyUSATHE SIGs of Jack Carr  P365 Collection: P365XL with Red Dot Optic, P365, P365X-Macro, P365 Custom with True Precision, and P365 Legion.Visit https://www.sigsauer.com/ and on Instagram @sigsauerinc Jack Carr Gear: Explore the gear here https://jackcarr.co/gear
