1783 Inquiry Fails to Resolve Cause; Historians Exonerate Washington Professor Benjamin L. Carp, Professor of History at Brooklyn College and the CUNY Graduate Center | The Great New York Fire of 1776: A Lost Story of the American Revolution In October 1783, General Guy Carleton convened an inquiry to determine if the fire was accidental or by design, questioning witnesses about sabotage and combustibles. However, no summary opinion was reached. The unique records of this inquiry were found not in the British archives but in the clerk's private papers, donated in 1893. Early American memoirists like Joseph Henry concluded Americans were responsible, arguing that even "great countries can do bad deeds." However, influential historians like Washington Irving later strove to exonerate George Washington, blaming apolitical "miscreants" instead. Retry

Unable to discern insurgents from civilians, the army begins burning villages and destroying entire communities. After years of failures on the battlefield, and extreme criticism of the war at home and abroad, American troops withdraw battered and beaten, leaving piles of native corpses in their wake. Sound familiar? This is the Second Seminole War, one of the largest conflicts fought on American soil and the bloodiest war waged against Native Americans.This episode of Gladio Free Europe continues our discussion on the conquest and settlement of the Sunshine State, with a focus on the violent but ultimately unsuccessful subjugation of the Seminole Nation. Though little-discussed in modern times, this brutal and genocidal struggle made Florida what it is today. The violent removal of thousands of Seminoles from Florida to Oklahoma would open up the peninsula to white settlement and the expansion of plantation slavery. By the outbreak of the Civil War, Florida would be an essential piece of the Southern economy. The circumstances of Seminole defeat, including the betrayal of Chief Osceola, would be a black stain the reputation of American military, President Andrew Jackson, and the United States at large. And while most Seminoles were deported, Seminole resistance would continue for the next century. Some reseilient Seminoles, led by people such as Billy Bowlegs, would stand their ground in the South Florida swamps until the present day. In Oklahoma, Seminoles like the black warrior John Horse would continue their struggle against colonization and and empire. Parallel to conflicts with the Seminoles, Florida history would be shaped by many enterprising eccentrics who sought to tame this wild country as they saw fit. Liam, Russian Sam, and Jackson discuss the careers of figures like Jean Lafitte, the New Orleans pirate who had a brief thassalocracy across the Gulf of Mexico, and Zepheniah Kingsley, a bizarre and contradictory Quaker planter who proclaimed the evils of racism while holding dozens of black slaves in bondage, and apparently styled himself not as a white planter but instead as a polygamist African chief. Listen to this latest episode of Gladio Free Europe to understand just why Florida is America's strangest state.Please forgive the audio glitches in this episode! Ending track is "Seminole," recorded by the Esso Steel Band of Bermuda in 1959.

Early American entertainment included the circus, the minstrel show, vaudeville, broadway revues, all popular forms of the variety show. And it was talent from those stage shows that created radio. But radio wasn't the same as the stage. Radio was different manifesting new possibilities for entertainment. An opportunity to entertain with new formats. The situation … Continue reading When Radio Ruled 143 – Birth of the SitCom

"...and as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do." In this episode, Professor Johnson (Baylor U.) explores the origins of American theories of diplomacy and the importance of race and freedom in early American history. These concepts are seen most clearly in early relations between the USA and France, particularly the French colony of Saint-Domingue (modern day Haiti). This episode covers the period between the First Treaty of Paris (1763) and the Second Treaty of Paris (1783). Topics include: -the origins of American diplomacy -the conditions in the First Treaty of Paris that enflamed colonial tensions in North America, the Caribbean, and even Africa -the evolving racial politics amongst whites, free people of color, and slaves in Saint-Domingue, which had 128 categories of racial distinction -the similarities and differences between racial politics and colonial politics in British North America and French Saint-Domingue -the fascinating story of Crispus Attucks, a Massachusetts slave who freed himself and then became the first martyr in the Boston Massacre -strategies of black liberation in both French and British colonies -black authors who wrote about black emancipation, including Phillis Wheatley and Lemuel Haynes -John Adams' founding foreign policy theory of the new United States, namely the rejection of Europe's concept of the balance of power and military alliances -the first treaty between France and the US in 1778 -the story of the Chasseurs-Volontaires de Saint-Domingue, who fought with American rebels at the Siege of Savannah and who, after the American Revolution, returned to Saint-Domingue to lead the Haitian Revolution against the French Empire -the importance of Article 1 of the second Treaty of Paris (1783), which states: "His Brittanic Majesty acknowledges the said United States...to be free sovereign and Independent States; that he treats with them as such, and for himself his Heirs & Successors, relinquishes all claims to the Government, Propriety, and Territorial Rights of the same and every Part thereof."

In this episode, Christopher Douglas (Jacksonville State University) leads Ashley Rattner (Jacksonville State University) through some of the most popular late 18th and early 19th-century content available on YouTube: period cooking recreation. If one were to search "18th century America" or "early America" on YouTube, the top results are short videos of people making food in recreation settings. This episode focuses specifically on Townsends, which covers 18th-century America and Early American, which focuses on the early 19th century. The ways these channels recreate the past omits voices that had fewer opportunities to publish during these periods, minimizing or ignoring the ways in which enslaved persons and Indigenous peoples made food, thus creating a limited recreation of America's historical past. The episode ends with suggestions for including more authentic recreation in the general-education classroom. Post-production support by Ryan Charlton (Georgia State University).

In this episode of The Photo Detective, Maureen Taylor welcomes historian Evan Friss, author of The Bookshop: A History of the American Bookstore. Friss dives deep into the evolution of bookstores in America—from colonial times to the digital age. He shares fascinating insights into their cultural, political, and communal roles throughout history.  Early American bookstores were cultural and political hubs, vital for disseminating revolutionary ideas and classic literature, despite also selling sundry items. Bookstores evolved from general goods shops to genre-specific havens—feminist, radical, and neighborhood staples—such as NYC's famous “Book Row.” Bookstores act as “third spaces,” offering connection, events, and literary engagement beyond just book sales. Independent bookstores face small profit margins, rising ebook popularity, and competition from Amazon, yet persist through innovation and community support.Related Episodes:Episode 198: A Sewing Girl's Tale with Author John Wood SweetEpisode 189: Historical Fiction Revealed with Carrie Deming of The Dog Eared Book Links:Evan FrissSign up for my newsletter.Watch my YouTube Channel.Need help preserving your photos?

Host Bex Scott shares the five Pyrex patterns that she doesn't love in this episode. In addition to naming the unloved patterns, she explores their history and what dishes made up the sets on offer. Everyone's tastes are different so listeners may love a pattern Bex doesn't. You may agree with Bex or you may want to bring a case in defence of a favourite that appears on this list. Or possibly you're new to Pyrex and want to explore different sets. Whichever way you lean, there's something for you in this episode. All the information Bex shares is from the Pyrex Bible, more formally known as Pyrex Passion 2nd Edition by Michael D. Barber. From Golden Acorn to the infamous Old Orchard, Bex lets you into her opinions on her least loved Pyrex patterns. What is it about these patterns that put her off? What other patterns does she dislike? What is the best way to ruin a gold pattern Pyrex bowl? And is there anybody who will stand up in support of Old Orchard? Listen in then share your agreements, arguments, and collection display photos with Bex on Instagram @PyrexWithBex. Resources discussed in this episode:“Pyrex Passion 2nd Edition” by Michael D.

I'll take you on my latest thrifting adventures, talk about reselling, chat with other enthusiasts about their collections, and learn about a bunch of really awesome items from the past. Subscribe now on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you love listening to podcasts so you don't miss a beat. Hey everybody, this is Bex Scott and you are listening to the Pyrex with Bex podcast. On today's episode, I wanted to talk about the five Pyrex patterns that I don't love. I figured that since I've talked in the past about so many of the patterns that I do love, and I've had guests talking about their collections and the ones that they collect the most often, I'd switch things up a little bit and talk about the ones that I don't love as much. Now I do enjoy all Pyrex and I'll use any kind of pattern. I have even put patterns that I don't love in displays just because they go so well. And you'll realize that there's a bit of a pattern to the ones that I don't love once I start going through them. But I wanted to give you an idea of some of the ones that I don't necessarily collect as much of, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether you agree with me, which ones you don't love, and get a conversation going. You can find me on Instagram at Pyrex with Bex, and feel free to share your thoughts about this episode there. Bex Scott: [00:01:42] So starting off, we have the first one, and I'll start by saying all of the information that I'm going to give is from the Pyrex Bible, the Pyrex Passion Book by Michael D Barber. I have the second edition, and that's where I get all of my of my information from. So I wanted to, once I say which pattern I don't love, give you a little bit of background information on the dish so that you can learn a little bit more about it if you're a new collector, or maybe you have been collecting for a while, but you haven't necessarily read up about certain patterns. And just to give some fun information on each of the pieces. Because regardless of whether I like it, there's tons of other people out there that do like these pieces, so to each their own. Bex Scott: [00:02:30] So the very first one is the Gold Acorn. And I have owned various pieces of this set, and I believe I started off liking them, but it just wasn't a pattern that grew on me. So this one was produced from 1959 to 1963, and it came in an assorted bakeware set. So it was gold applied to a beige background. It paints a little bit of a picture, and it's like a scrolly kind of ivy leaf pattern with little acorns on it. And it says that the boxes didn't include the pattern name, but marketing materials from the time used the name Gold Acorn on Ivory or Golden Touch in reference to this pattern. And it says that the first edition of Pyrex Passion referred to the pattern as Golden Acorn, but Gold Acorn was more commonly used in the catalogs. And most items were offered from 1959 to 1963, with the exception of the 053 oval open baker, which was dropped in 1962. So the ones that I've had are the oval casseroles, and they come in the one and a half quart and two and a half quart with the clear lids. And I've also had a divided serving dish. And one of the things that I learned early on when I was collecting Pyrex is that you don't put anything abrasive on gold, and this was me being naive. I should have known better. But I remember getting a tube of peek because starting off in my collecting, I had heard that peek is the perfect thing to take the utensil marks off of Pyrex and just clean them up, which it is. But you cannot use anything abrasive on gold because it will wear it off. So I remember squeezing the peek onto a piece of paper towel, and I rubbed off the whole bottom half of the gold acorn pattern. And I still haven't forgotten that it was a good lesson for me to learn, but for any of you that are just starting out, you can use peek to clean your Pyrex but do not use it on the gold. It will ruin it. Bex Scott: [00:04:58] Okay, so the Gold Acorn was also offered in the stamp catalog carousel with a cradle, and the stamp program was where you would redeem your stamps at the store and they would give you the Pyrex in return. So it says the item appears in the 1961 Top Value Stamps Family Gift Catalog. The cradle was the same one used on the 1959 duet, or also known as Dandelion Casserole. And that one kind of has the same colorings. It's more of a yellow, though, actually. And I really like the Dandelion. The oval divided serving dish also came in Gold Acorn and then the oval open baker. And I have to say, I don't love this pattern, but I do have a weakness for space saver casseroles. I just love the size of them, especially if they come with that metal lid. Perfect for the freezer. So these ones were sold individually with a clear lid from 1959 to 1963. And then they came out with another set, same time frame though, with the oven freezer serving set. And they were both packaged in a set that included one clear lid and two metal lids. And I know where I am in Canada at least those metal lids are very hard to come by. I think I have maybe one of them that I was lucky enough to find on Facebook Marketplace, and that's one that I will never resell. That one will stay in my collection, and I'm always on the lookout for more of those metal lids. Now, the Gold Acorn did have a prototype, and they were the 473, 474 and 475. They were the round casseroles with clear lids, and these ones were not standard production items. They have resurfaced in this pattern and are being said that they're possibly manufactured as test items in the early 1960s. Bex Scott: [00:07:00] So next up, you'll see there's a bit of a theme here with which patterns I don't love. We have the Golden Honeysuckle, so it's not all gold that I dislike. There are quite a few patterns, especially the promotional ones that have gold. There's just something about these ones that have the vines or the flowers that I don't know why, it just doesn't do it for me. The Golden Honeysuckle 1963 to 1965. It was testing, Corning was testing the market with new shapes and sizes of casseroles. And I think that's maybe why this one I don't love so much. Now, I've owned all of the Golden Honeysuckle, and they are really nice to bake casseroles in and to heat things in because they're nice and long and they're really deep. There's also shallow ones for vegetables, which is great. But to me, this isn't the standard Pyrex that I know and love. They released four casseroles, and they featured a unique square shape designed by William M Curtis. Bex Scott: [00:08:09] To ensure the gold pattern adhered properly casseroles were sprayed white on top of the opal glass. Walnut serving trays were also available in one size, a 935 that fit the two smaller casseroles, while another size, 958, fit the two larger casseroles. The serving trays were sold separately and also packaged with the casseroles when sold as a set. And these casseroles were sold individually and you have the 033, 035, 055, 058, 935 which is the tray and the 958 which is the tray. And then it came as a casserole serving set. So you have the 33, the 35, the 55 and the 58. And then there were casserole prototypes. So after the casserole style was patented in 1961, Corning tested the new shapes with many different designs. These prototype items are quite rare, but can be found in many patterns such as Early American, Green Scroll, White Snowflake on Turquoise, and White Compass on Turquoise. Bex Scott: [00:09:17] Okay, the next one. This is going to be no surprise because I've talked about it at length on many of my episodes. That Old Orchard is my least favorite pattern. And there's tons of memes out there about poor Old Orchard. And it really doesn't get a lot of love. So I would really like to know how many collectors out there or just people in general, like the Old Orchard pattern. And if you have examples of how you've styled Old Orchard in your shelves with other items, I would really like to see them because this is one pattern that is very interesting to me, and I'm sure it will look great in a fall assembly of just different items, so feel free to shoot them over to me on Instagram. Bex Scott: [00:10:06] So Old Orchard was 1973 to 1977 and it contained a mix of pattern pieces, solid colored pieces and pieces with brown shading sprayed around the top of the bowl, so it gave it kind of an ombre effect. It was designed by Corning artist Estelle G. Rothstein, and it was released in late 1973. The lids were solid brown applied to opal glass. However, by 1977 the brown lids were replaced by clear lids, and I have maybe 1 or 2 of these pieces. Actually, I think I have most of the Cinderella Bowl set and a few of the round casseroles, but I've only ever found one of the solid brown lids, and it does look nice when you put a solid brown lid on the solid bottomed pattern. But the clear ones are definitely more popular to find with this set. So this set came in a three piece and a four piece mixing bowl from 1973 to 77. So you have the 401, 2, 3 and 4, and it alternates from the pattern, the fruit pattern to the brown tan fade, fruit pattern, brown tan fade. So you have an alternating pattern for your stack. And then that's the same for the Cinderella bowls. It was a four piece Cinderella bowl set. Bex Scott: [00:11:28] And then you have the four piece refrigerator set as well. It was two 501s that are different colors. One was solid dark brown and the other was solid caramel. Next up you have the three piece bake, serve and store set. And this was round casseroles in the three piece with brown opal lids from 1973 through to early 77. In the last few months of production, the opal lids were replaced like the clear lids like it mentioned before. So you have the 471, 472 and the 473. And then it came in the three piece casserole set, and it typically included brown opal lids, which were then replaced by the clear lids as well. So this set was the 473, 474 and 475. Next you have your oval casseroles, your oval divided serving dish, and then the covered casserole, the four quart round covered casserole, also known as a Bertha. And it came with the round knob lid, which was the 664 four quart round casserole Old Orchard pattern clear single knob lid. There was also Harvest promotional items that went with the set. Two of the round casseroles 473 and 475 were offered as promotional items, called Harvest in 1974. They included a brown hugger, if you guys haven't seen that, it's the plastic little stand with the handles that just fits around the casserole dish, and a decorated clear lid with a leaf design. Unlike standard Old Orchard items, the promotional items did not include a brown shade effect at the top of the bowls. The smaller casserole has a dark orange background and the larger has a light orange background. These ones, because they're not the ombre brown, I actually like them a little bit more. Bex Scott: [00:13:30] And last but not least, in the five patterns that I don't really love so much, we have Forest Fancies. So I've been on the fence about Forest Fancies for a very long time because I do like anything with a mushroom on it. And mushrooms are so popular, they resell like crazy. I actually had somebody I sold another set to ask me to source a Forest Fancies set for them. So there's definitely people who love these ones. This, out of all of the ones I've mentioned, is probably the one that I like the most out of the five, but it still unfortunately made my list. So Forest Fancies was released in the mid 1980s on a limited number of items, specifically nesting mixing bowl sets, and round casseroles. The design was sold as Forest in Canada, and it was discontinued during the second half of 1986, when all opal Pyrex ceased production. Backstamps only contain metric units, although boxes included both metric and imperial measures. Since the mid 1970s, kitchen decor was increasingly dominated by earthy elements such as fruits and mushrooms. Like I was saying, that's all really popular right now. All of the the earthy mushroom fruits and vegetables. And Corning's response to the trend resulted in this pattern, and it was designed by Corning artist Mark G. Rubin. Bex Scott: [00:15:00] Reusable plastic containers with airtight lids had replaced the practicality of glass refrigerator and freezer storage dishes, resulting in the discontinuation of many Pyrex items such as oval casseroles, divided dishes, and refrigerator sets. So this one came in a three piece and a four piece mixing bowl set, and the four piece mixing bowl set was discontinued in 83, while the three piece remained available through 1986. And that was the 401 through 404. Then there was the four piece Cinderella Bowl set, and that was the 441 to 444. I haven't actually seen a lot of the Cinderella bowls around where I live, but I have seen quite a few of the mixing bowl sets, and I've never actually seen any of the round casseroles in real life, so that would be kind of a cool set to have, I have to admit. So it was the three piece bake set and serve store set from 1980 to 1985, and they all had clear lids. There was the 471, 472 and the 473, and those ones are actually kind of cute. And in the picture here, they're propped up next to a 470 set with a counter saver. So it was like a placemat for your counter. You could probably cut things on it and it had a little, it has the little Forest Fancies pattern on the bottom right hand corner. Bex Scott: [00:16:28] Okay, so they also have the three piece casserole set in the 473 to 475, as well as the one and a half quart covered round casserole, which was sold individually, so the 474 was sold in the casserole set as well as on its own. You also have the 475, which was sold on its own through 1980 to 1983. Then there was also a two piece casserole set, and that was the 473 to 474 so there's all these different combinations where you could get a three piece, a two piece, buy them individually, and then they talk about the Counter Savers, which were available from 1985 to 1991. And it says two sizes of glass counter savers, marketed as Mushroom, were launched around 85 to match the Forest Fancies design. So you had a 12 by 15 and then a 16 by 20. Those would be cute to have on your countertop. Bex Scott: [00:17:34] Okay, so those are my top five least liked of the standard Pyrex patterns. I'll have another episode that goes into the promotional items that aren't on the top of my list, but in the meantime, I'll add in some more positive things that I like episodes just to balance it out for you guys. But I would love to hear your thoughts on the ones that I don't love and tell me the ones that also aren't your top Pyrex patterns. Follow me on Instagram at Pyrex with Bex and we can start a conversation there. Feel free to send me photos of all of your awesome displays and I will see you next time.

In our last episode, Episode 399, we discussed Denmark Vesey's revolt and the way biblical texts and scripture enabled Vesey to organize what would have been the largest slave revolt in United States history if the revolt had not been thwarted before Vesey could put it into action. Early American history is filled with revolts against enslavers that were thwarted and never made it past the planning stage. But, one uprising that did move beyond planning and into action was the Southampton Rebellion or Nat Turner's Revolt in August 1831. In this BFW Revisited episode, Episode 133, which was released in May 2017, we met with Patrick Breen, an Associate Professor of History at Providence College. Patrick joined us to investigate Nat Turner's Revolt with details from his book The Land Shall Be Deluged in Blood: A New History of the Nat Turner Revolt.

Send us a textWhat can early American state constitutions teach us about the intricate relationship between faith and governance? Join me, Jesse Cope, on the American Soul Podcast as we uncover the profound Christian references within the Constitution of New York from 1777, and how the founding generation's beliefs in natural laws and divine principles influenced the nation's framework. We begin our journey with heartfelt gratitude to our listeners, an update on the homestead, and a timeless lesson from my mother about seizing opportunities when they arise. With a prayer for educators and families, we emphasize the importance of daily Bible reading, prayer, and expressing love to our spouses, setting the stage for our deep dive into early American state constitutions.Explore the historical context of religious requirements for public office in North Carolina's 1776 constitution, where we discuss the critical role of faith-based qualifications in governance and the intent behind prohibiting dual office-holding to avoid conflicts of interest. Discover the common misconception about the separation of church and state, and how North Carolina mandated that officeholders acknowledge God and the Protestant religion to ensure the state's freedom and safety. We also examine the Constitution of New Hampshire from 1776, noting its unique lack of religious emphasis and reflecting on the significant autonomy originally granted to the states. As we conclude, I extend my blessings to you and your families, eagerly looking forward to our future discussions on the foundational principles that shaped our nation.Support the Show.The American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

Embark on a historical odyssey with us as we host Michael Baysa, postdoctoral history scholar from Washington University in St. Louis, who meticulously peels back the layers of early American print culture. His compelling narratives bring to light the selective democratization of print and the hidden struggles of figures like Santiago de Puglia in disseminating progressive ideas. Together, we uncover the complex interplay of language, identity, and power that defined the nation's earliest days and echoes into our modern era.Revelations abound in this episode, as we traverse the influence of religious establishments and linguistic diversity in shaping America's formative years. Michael Beza offers a critical perspective on the advantages Protestant groups held in leveraging printing for their benefit, alongside the restrictive societal undercurrents that curtailed voices like Puglia's. We dissect the role of anti-Catholic sentiment and explore how key figures of American history interacted with and were influenced by multilingual and multicultural dynamics.We wrap up with a look towards the future, featuring up-and-coming academic Michael Baysa whose insights into the religious history of America's printing press promise to spark fresh academic discourse. Follow his journey at @MichaelBaysa, and stay connected with the evolving conversation on the relationship between religion, culture, and politics. As we close this chapter, we leave you enriched with a deeper appreciation of the nuanced forces that continue to sculpt the narrative of American society.

Black history is American history but it's also, and perhaps especially, DC history, as so much of our nation's capital was built by free and enslaved African Americans.    Join Becca and Rebecca as we discuss Benjamin Banneker, astronomer, surveyor, and "correspondent" of Thomas Jefferson. Hear the truth behind the myths, why there are so many myths about him, and how very important Banneker is to the history of DC and legacy of abolitionism.   Comments or Questions?

Have you ever wondered how much our founding fathers leaned on their faith to guide their educational philosophies? We've taken an exploration on this unique topic in our latest episode of the WallBuilders Show with hosts David Barton, Tim Barton, and Rick Green. Our journey back in time shows us how deeply the Bible shaped education, and consequently, our young nation. You'll hear from Tim Barton who shares his insights from the Pro Family Legislators Conference, referencing the teachings of Dr. Benjamin Rush among other notable founding fathers, who argued for a strong Christian foundation for a successful republic.Education back then was not just ABCs and 123s. It was not unusual for first graders to learn from textbooks filled with religious lessons and catechisms. The alphabet was taught in a way that strongly emphasized biblical knowledge and values. It's an enlightening peek into how our early education system was driven by faith and spiritual awareness.One might think that such a strong religious influence could stifle critical thinking. Quite the contrary! We learned how the students of yore were encouraged to navigate morally ambiguous issues and engage in creative debates. Such rigorous mind training led to the development of strong problem-solving skills - abilities that would later prove invaluable during trying times. Join us in this intriguing conversation as we draw parallels between the education of the past and the problem-solving abilities of one of the most challenging periods in our history. It's a compelling exploration of how faith played a significant role in molding early American society and education.Support the show

What is the “traditional American family?” Popular images from the colonial and pioneer past suggest an isolated and self-sufficient nuclear family as the center of American identity and the source of American strength. But the idea of early American self-sufficiency is a myth. Caro Pirri tells the story of the precarious Jamestown settlement and how its residents depended on each other and on Indigenous Americans for survival. Early American history can help us imagine new kinds of interdependent and multi-generational family structures as an antidote to the modern crisis of loneliness and alienation.  Researcher, writer, and episode producer: Caro Pirri, Assistant Professor of English, University of Pittsburgh Featured Scholars:  Jean Feerick, Professor of English, John Carroll University Steven Mentz, Professor of English, St. John's University Special thanks: Molly Warsh For transcript, teaching aids, and other resources, click here.

Many of our Founding Fathers were not interested in partisan politics. Yet, shortly after the founding of the republic, parties rose up as debate grew regarding the federal government's powers. H.W. Brands writes about these topics in his new book "Founding Partisans." He joins us to discuss the impact of partisanship on our democracy.

This conversation is part of a special series, The Heart of Methodism. Eddie and Chris, who are both pastors in the United Methodist Church, will talk to guests who can help us dive a little deeper into Methodism and its history, theology, traditions, and future.Today's guest, Dr. John Wigger, is a professor at the University of Missouri, where he specializes in US social and cultural history, including religious history and the history of flight. His most recent book is about the mystery of hijacker D.B. Cooper, but he is also spent a lot of time researching and writing about the history of the Methodist movement in the United States. Dr. Wigger traces the roots of Methodism through other Protestant denominations, including the rise and growth of Pentecostalism.Resources:American Saint: Francis Asbury and the Methodists

William Hunter was a radical advocate for American democracy. Born in New Brunswick, New Jersey, he was the founder of the second newspaper west of the Alleghenies, and the first newspaper editor to protest the Alien and Sedition Acts. Arguably a Jacksonian Democrat before Andrew Jackson first ran for president, Hunter served the Jackson Administration, and as a civil servant seven successive administrations. Yet that brief biography obscures his very interesting origins. For William Hunter had been born in New Brunswick, yes, but as the son of John Hunter of the 26th Regiment of the Line. For the first ten years of his life William followed his father as his peacetime service in British America became combat service in the rebellious territory of the new United States. Departing for Britain at age ten in 1778 when his sick father was detached for recruiting duties, William returned to the United States fifteen years later, his father dead, his mother and sister left behind. He was now a committed republican, arriving in Philadelphia in the midst of the yellow fever epidemic of 1793. He would never again travel back across the ocean, or see his mother and again. Gene Procknow describes the ups and downs, and twist and turns of William Hunter's eventful life in his new book William Hunter Finding Free Speech: A British Soldier's Son Who Became an Early American. Formerly a management consultant with a global consulting firm, Gene Procknow has become a careful historian of early American history; William Hunter is his first book. For Further Investigation Gene's website has some wonderful "behind the book" material Here's an article Gene wrote for the Journal of the American Revolution on different perspectives on the quartering of British soldiers in New Brunswick, NJ In the course of the episode, Gene referenced Don Hagist. Here's a conversation with Don about punishment in the British Army during the American Revolution; and here's a conversation with Don that ranges much more widely into the society and culture of the British Army that fought in America Since Dan Gullotta, friend of the show, used to do a podcast called Age of Jackson, we've tended to avoid American history from roughly 1815 to 1850. But here's an exception to the rule, a conversation about a no less radical Democrat than William Hunter, none other than Senator John C. Calhoun of South Carolina.

IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™… Dan Buettner joins the show to talk about the origins and food foundations of Blue Zones. He discusses how they were discovered, what makes them different, and what's changed for people living there over the past few decades. And the big question—is it still possible to live to 100?Dan, an explorer, National Geographic Fellow, award-winning journalist and producer, and photographer, has studied and written extensively about the five places in the world—dubbed Blue Zones—where people live the longest, healthiest, and often happiest lives. He's partnered with epidemiologists, anthropologists, medical researchers, demographers, and statisticians to take a data-based approach to everything from genetics to census data.Combining this intensive research with cultural immersion, Dan's brought out aspects of Blue Zones lifestyles—like food and social connection—that form a foundation for human life quality and longevity. He's the bestselling author of a series of Blue Zone books.In Dan's latest Blue Zones adventure, he took a road trip across the United States to explore food and communities. He found that pockets of Blue Zones do exist throughout the U.S. He talked to heritage cooks passing on recipes to younger generations. He uncovered the traditional roots of plant-forward cuisine in the United States and presents both traditional and revolutionary ideas in vegetarian food in his newest book, “The Blue Zones American Kitchen: 100 Recipes to Live to 100.” Stunning photography and recipes show the vitality of both food and people from five distinct areas: Indigenous, Native & Early American, African American, Latin American, Asian American and Regional and Contemporary American.Dan also dug deep into the country's food history and brings to light the dramatic changes in food processing, regulation, government intervention, and leadership choices that have influenced food supply. He combed through 60 oral histories, scientific reports and academic papers to reconstruct traditional American diets. In “The Blue Zones American Kitchen,” you'll find out why the 1970s were the worst decade for America's food environment. WE APPRECIATE OUR PARTNERS. CHECK THEM OUT!
