We've heard it before: Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. But what did the Founders mean by “the pursuit of happiness,” and how do virtue and moral philosophy shape our understanding of this unalienable right? Sharon is joined by Jeffrey Rosen, President and CEO of the National Constitution Center, to explore these questions, as well as to dive deeper into the history and meaning of the pursuit of life-long virtue. Learn how six of the Framers and Founders – flaws and all – embody different virtues, and consider the importance of electing leaders who will be virtuous and uphold the principles of Democracy.

The shrinking affordable housing commitments—how 700 promised units became just 288, and what that means for local families. Environmental and cultural concerns, including threats to one of Maui's last dryland forests and over 200 cultural sites, including iwi kūpuna (ancestral burials).

What role should the US play in international conflicts? Pulitzer prize finalist and historian H.W. Brands joins Sharon McMahon to discuss his latest book, “America First.” They dig into the America First movement inside the United States during the 1930s and early 40s. As World War II was raging, President Franklin Roosevelt was looking to gin up support for the US to help its allies fight the war. But celebrity aviator Charles Lindbergh and the America First Committee were standing in his way. Brands explains why Lindbergh's anti-intervention message was so appealing to Americans at the time, and how that message compares to the America First movement that is playing out today.

Was there a secret conspiracy between Ronald Reagan's campaign and Iran to help him win the 1980 election? NYT bestselling author Craig Unger unpacks the plot in his most recent book, “Den of Spies,” a story he worked on for 30 years. The Iran hostage crisis had plagued Jimmy Carter's presidency, and was seen as one of his biggest failures. Reagan's campaign worried that an October hostage release would give Carter a boost to win reelection. So, Unger explains, Reagan's team hatched a plan to get Iran to hold the hostages until Reagan was president, trading weapons for their cooperation. It's a real-life spy thriller filled with CIA operatives, code names, and countless people who tried to stop Unger from uncovering the truth.
