On this episode of The Hillsdale College Online Courses Podcast, Jeremiah and Juan discuss the legacies of Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard Nixon before introducing Wilfred McClay. Americans have overcome many challenges throughout our history, including the American Revolution, the Civil War, the Great Depression, two World Wars, and the Cold War. Studying the great stories from our past inspires us to preserve the blessings of liberty in our day. Now you can study these stories with Hillsdale College. Hillsdale’s free online course, “The Great American Story: A Land of Hope,” explores the history of America as a land of hope founded on high principles. In presenting the great triumphs and achievements of our nation’s past, as well as the shortcomings and failures, it offers a broad and unbiased study of the kind essential to the cultivation of intelligent patriotism. Lyndon B. Johnson entered office with an ambitious plan to expand the scope of government. Dubbed “The Great Society,” his efforts to transform domestic policy were stalled in part by his party’s opposition to America’s mounting commitments in Southeast Asia. While Richard Nixon achieved important diplomatic victories in Vietnam and China, the American economy suffered from low growth and inflation. Nixon’s resignation, and the failures of the Carter administration, diminished America’s confidence in the presidency.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They changed the name — but they didn't change the game. Heritage Foundation's Jonathan Butcher joins Marc Cox and Kim St. Onge to blow the lid off what's really happening on America's college campuses, and it's worse than any parent wants to hear. DEI didn't disappear — it just rebranded as "belonging," and the racial preferences in admissions, hiring, and promotion are still running full speed. Meanwhile, tuition keeps skyrocketing because Washington keeps handing out student loans, lazy rivers get built at LSU, and kids graduate with degrees in made-up studies programs and can't find a job. Butcher's new book features an all-star conservative lineup — Kevin Roberts, Chris Rufo, Larry Arnn of Hillsdale — and it makes the case that the four-year degree racket is collapsing under its own weight. Trade schools are booming, AI isn't replacing your plumber, and the Marc Cox Morning Show is asking the questions Missouri's Republican supermajority should have been asking years ago. You need to hear this before you write that next tuition check.

America keeps trying to solve spiritual problems with political answers, but Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian look back at the Great Awakening to show how true liberty began with repentance and surrender to God. Zach connects Jonathan Edwards, George Whitefield, and the rise of personal responsibility in faith to the eventual deconsolidation of political power in colonial America. The guys compare revival movements then and now, wrestling with emotionalism, denominational unity, and why freedom can't flourish when people forget the God who gave it.

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian take an honest look at America's imperfect founding. As they continue their Hillsdale series, they examine the tension between liberty and slavery and how flawed motives shaped the early nation. But even in the middle of it, a deeper truth emerges: true freedom doesn't come from government—it comes from God. That idea, rooted in natural law, would go on to shape everything from the Declaration of Independence to the fight for civil rights.
