Lionel dissects the true history of Washington's Birthday and ranks the worst U.S. presidents, including the "drunk" Franklin Pierce and the allegedly gay James Buchanan. He defends Yale professor David Gelernter against "militant atheists" while debating the limits of Darwinian evolution versus Intelligent Design. The conversation shifts to the modern surveillance state, the "Panopticon" of tracking data, and skepticism surrounding the media frenzy over the Savannah Guthrie missing person case. Finally, Lionel analyzes Barack Obama's "slip-up" regarding extraterrestrials and takes vivid listener calls about UFO sightings, ultimately asking: If aliens exist, do they have original sin?

fWotD Episode 3137: Jefferson Davis Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Saturday, 6 December 2025, is Jefferson Davis.Jefferson F. Davis (June 3, 1808 – December 6, 1889) was an American politician who served as the only president of the Confederate States from 1861 to 1865. He represented Mississippi in the United States Senate and the House of Representatives as a member of the Democratic Party before the American Civil War. He was the United States Secretary of War from 1853 to 1857.Davis, the youngest of ten children, was born in Fairview, Kentucky, but spent most of his childhood in Wilkinson County, Mississippi. His eldest brother Joseph Emory Davis secured the younger Davis's appointment to the United States Military Academy. Upon graduating, he served six years as a lieutenant in the United States Army. After leaving the army in 1835, Davis married Sarah Knox Taylor, daughter of future president Zachary Taylor. Sarah died from malaria three months after the wedding. Davis became a cotton planter, building Brierfield Plantation in Mississippi on his brother Joseph's land and eventually owning as many as 113 slaves.In 1845, Davis married Varina Howell. During the same year, he was elected to the United States House of Representatives, serving for one year. From 1846 to 1847, he fought in the Mexican–American War as the colonel of a volunteer regiment. He was appointed to the United States Senate in 1847, resigning to unsuccessfully run for governor of Mississippi. In 1853, President Franklin Pierce appointed him Secretary of War. After Pierce's administration ended in 1857, Davis returned to the Senate. He resigned in 1861 when Mississippi seceded from the United States.During the Civil War, Davis guided the Confederacy's policies and served as its commander in chief. When the Confederacy was defeated in 1865, Davis was captured, arrested for alleged complicity in the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, accused of treason, and imprisoned at Fort Monroe. He was released without trial after two years. Immediately after the war, Davis was often blamed for the Confederacy's defeat, but after his release from prison, the Lost Cause of the Confederacy movement considered him to be a hero. In the late 19th and the 20th centuries, his legacy as Confederate leader was celebrated in the South. In the 21st century, his leadership of the Confederacy has been seen as constituting treason, and he has been frequently criticized as a supporter of slavery and racism. Many of the memorials dedicated to him throughout the United States have been removed.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:10 UTC on Saturday, 6 December 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Jefferson Davis on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Amy.

How did the politicians in Washington D.C. push America towards the one thing they wanted to avoid: all out Civil War? We look at how the violent and frat house culture that existed within D.C. played its part, and at the chronic failure of leadership from those sitting atop of this steaming mess - the Presidents.We're joined by returning guest (from our Franklin Pierce episode) Brian C Neumann, author of 'Bloody Flag of Anarchy: Unionism in South Carolina during the Nullification Crisis' and managing director of the John L. Nau III Center for Civil War History at the University of Virginia.Produced by Freddy Chick. Edited by Aidan Lonergan.

(00:00-26:07) – Query & Company opens on a Thursday with Jake Query and producer Eddie Garrison discussing tonight’s NFL Draft. Jake reveals his early prediction as to what will happen tonight based off of comments made by Chris Ballard on Monday. Also, they create a bingo card of NFL Draft cliches and buzz words that will be mentioned frequently tonight. (26:07-43:02) – Tony East from Forbes Sports and Locked On Pacers makes his weekly visit on Query & Company to provide his opinion on what changes the Milwaukee Bucks should make for game three tomorrow night. Additionally, Tony assesses how the Pacers can retain Myles Turner this offseason and explains how Turner’s lack of rebounds doesn’t mean he’s not helping the team in the rebounding category. (43:02-46:11) – Hour number one concludes with Jake and Eddie giving away a pair of tickets for a listener to attend the Sonsio Grand Prix at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in a couple of weeks! (46:11-1:11:26) – The IndyStar’s Joel A. Erickson makes an appearance on Query & Company on draft day to rank the scenarios that Jake provides him from most likely to least likely. Joel also believes that Chris Ballard has tipped his hand a little bit with his comments at the NFL Combine, Owners Meetings, and on Monday at his pre-draft press conference. Finally, he weighs in on when the Colts pick will be announced and answers some trivia questions about his hometown in Wisconsin. (1:11:26-1:18:29) – Jake and Eddie shift the conversation back to the Indiana Pacers by previewing tomorrow’s game three in Milwaukee. They wonder what kind of changes the Bucks will make to try and overcome a two-game deficit against Indiana. (1:18:29-1:27:03) – Hour number two concludes with Jake asking Eddie if he figured out who Franklin Pierce was. It leads to a conversation about obscure presidents, and Eddie strikes a nerve with Jake. (1:27:03-1:55:51) – Voice of the Indianapolis Colts, Matt Taylor, joins Jake Query on the show to provide his take on tonight’s NFL Draft. He believes that the Colts might be better off at tight end than some people will think, notes a couple of prospects he finds intriguing that could be in play for the Colts at fourteen, evaluates if the selection of a tight end would play in favor of Daniel Jones over Anthony Richardson, and weighs in on the NFL Draft buzz words/cliches that will be mentioned tonight. (1:55:51-2:04:27) – For the second time on today’s show, Jake and Eddie give away a pair of tickets for a listener to attend the Sonsio Grand Prix at IMS! Turns out that this winner is a huge IndyCar fan and talks about some of his favorite races that he has attended. (2:04:27-2:08:57) – Today’s show closes with JMV joining Jake from Taylor’s Pub in Nora! They preview JMV’s show and the first round of tonight’s NFL Draft!Support the show: https://1075thefan.com/query-and-company/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The sports crew (Dylan, Zach, Kody and Aaron) break down the first round of the state football playoffs and ask if the seeding committees got it right.

Kody has taken the Grid Picks lead and will not relinquish it. We hope you all survived the storm.

Today's guest is 1 for 1 as a head coach winning the Division 2 National Championship last year with Franklin Pierce University. Travis Brent, a Virginia Beach kid, played his college ball at Marshall, and took his skills to the Netherlands after to play pro Dutch style… AND his Uncle won Wimbledon. Random, I know, but super cool. Check out coach Brent's philosophy and approach to the game, which based on early returns… is working. Let's Go! #ncaa #Division2 #menssoccer #collegerecruiting

Franklin Pierce's story is essential to understanding the complexities and challenges of pre-Civil War America. It highlights the nation's divisions, ambitions, and enduring quest for unity. Podcast Notes: https://ancestralfindings.com/franklin-pierce-the-tragic-president

Guest Jonathan Mandledove talks about his long, winding and at times complicated relationship with the game of basketball and why it means everything to him today. The 7-footer was a member of a top 5 recruiting class at UConn, suiting up alongside six future NBA players. But his career didn't work out the way he dreamed, as he left Storrs, Conn. after three seasons of playing without a degree or NBA contract. Over the next decade he'd fall back in love with the sport as a coach, return to campus to get his degree and join the college coaching ranks, where he currently serves as as an assistant coach for both the men's and women's teams at Franklin Pierce. This is truly an incredible conversation.

Jack is a great human & basketball player, he and I talk about his journey from being under recruited, having his freshman year taken away by covid, winning a national championship the next year and then back to back conference championships along with all the struggles and hardship in between After SMCC Jack takes us through his experience at Franklin Pierce which a NCAA Division 2 school in NH in the NE10, he played there for one semester and shortly transferred to UNE (University of New England) to finish out the year and why that change was so important to him and why it was such a better fit Jack provides some great insight for any players listening and anyone in general!

In the wake of President Zachary Taylor's sudden death, Millard Fillmore signs into law the Compromise of 1850, the so called “final settlement” on the issue of slavery. But the Compromise has unintended consequences.

As we enter the 2024 season, Jayson King embarks on his seventh year as the head coach of Dayton Baseball, leaving an indelible mark on the program. In just a short span, King has elevated Dayton Baseball to new heights in the Atlantic 10, guiding the Flyers to consecutive appearances in the Championship Game. The 2021 season witnessed the Flyers' impressive 12-4 conference play record, securing the second seed in the postseason tournament. Notably, the team displayed offensive prowess with 69 home runs, the third-highest in program history, and a formidable pitching performance, striking out 436 opposing hitters.

This achievement, coupled with Dayton's improved conference winning percentage, showcases King's ability to foster both individual player development and team success.

The accolades continued with numerous Coach of the Year honors and the development of 25 MLB draft picks. King's influence extends beyond the college ranks, with experience coaching in USA Baseball and the prestigious Cape Cod Baseball League. His commitment to player development and success is evident in the 85-spot jump in the RPI rankings during his inaugural season at Dayton.

S2E16 - Tune in as Trent and Marissa break down the infamous Kansas-Nebraska Act and its bloody consequences.  Signed into law by hot loser Franklin Pierce in 1854, it allowed the people themselves to decide whether or not to allow slavery in the territories. What could possibly go wrong? Well, just voter fraud, the beating of a congressman, broadswords, fleeing governors, killing sprees, the death of a political party, the birth of a political party… and the inevitability of civil war.  Email pardonme.presidentialpod@gmail.com to contact us or issue corrections (with sources, please)!   Produced and Edited by Trent Thomson and Marissa Macy Original music by Noise of Approval Graphic design by Darcey Mckinney   Sources Franklin Pierce by Michael F.

But she was also a woman who lived with chronic pain and suffered tremendous loss. Join me this week as I dive into the life of Jane Pierce. And when you are done, be sure to let me know where you fall: was Pierce a bad wife? Or simply a damaged one?

Congress is back in session following its summer recess. Although many used the time off to relax and recharge, lawmakers are picking up right where they left off. FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram summarizes FBI Director Christopher Wray's testimony before the House Judiciary Committee, where he defended his record after lawmakers accused the Bureau of conducting politically motivated investigations. Later Chad explains why Congresswoman Majorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) was removed from the House Freedom Caucus and details Tuesday's Senate investigative subcommittee hearing regarding the PGA Tour's partnership with Saudi-backed LIV Golf.  New Hampshire has only successfully produced one President, Franklin Pierce. However, the "Live Free or Die" state has made a name for itself as one of the most influential states in the Presidential primaries. New Hampshire state law dictates the primary should be held on the second Tuesday of March or at least seven days before any other primary in the country. However, this first-in-the-nation status is being challenged by the Democratic National Committee, whose proposed revamped calendar puts South Carolina at the front of the primary calendar. New Hampshire Secretary of State David Scanlan, weighs in on how the new schedule will affect New Hampshire's status as a battleground state and explains the DNC's reasoning for changing the calendar.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Presidents Trivia Alright! This episode is all about Presidents from the United States trivia. We are grateful to have Major Data on this episode.

Prior to Barron Trump, who was the last boy to live at the White House? William Howard Taft was the first president to throw out the ceremonial first pitch of the baseball season when he did so for the Washington Senators in 1910. To which MLB HOF 12x AL strikout leading pitcher did he throw this pitch to? Contrary to popular belief, George Washington's false teeth were not made out of wood but in fact were made out of other materials including teeth from slaves, brass, gold and ivory from which large African animal? George Washington posthumously was promoted to "General of the Armies of the United States", effectively a 6 star general, ranking him above all military officers for eternity. Which future US president promoted him to this rank? Twelve presidents have held the rank of general in the military and other held officer ranks, including James K Polk and Millard Filmore making the rank of Major. Who is the only president with military service to never become an officer and is the last president to serve in the War of 1812? Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump are the only presidents with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Trump is honored with his star for his role in producing what event from 1996 to 2015?

In 1852, Franklin Pierce and William King won President and Vice President respectively. Unfortunately, shortly after King contracted tuberculosis and traveled out of the US to try to regain his health, making him the only vice president to take the oath of office on foreign soil. Which carribean country whose current president is Miguel Diaz-Canel did he take the oath in? Which president was featured on the cover of Cosmopolitan in an illustration by artist Bradshaw Crandell featuring him in his Navy uniform planting a kiss on his then model girlfriend Phyllis Brown? Which president served as the 1st Governor of the Indiana Territory from 1801 to 1812, and in 1811 convinced the Secretary of War to allow him to assume command of 950 soldiers 13 years after his last military action in order to face off against the Shawnee, leading to his nickname?

This Sidebar episode starts with my notes from my trip to Cuba "in support of the Cuban people," one of the exceptions to the general ban on Americans traveling there. Those notes lead to a story from American - Cuban relations: Three "filibustering" invasions of Cuba launched from the United States in the 1840s, the strange American origin of the flag of Cuba, the election of Franklin Pierce on the platform of acquiring Cuba for the United States, and the curious swearing in of his Vice President, William Rufus King, on a sugar plantation in Cuba.
