(Courtesy Kevin Hurley / Riverbend Video Production / YouTube) The Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska is fighting to stop a potential Google data center in Salix, Iowa, just across the state line near the Missouri River. Chrystal Blair explains. Google is considering a site spanning about 900 acres. Tribal leaders say the project could put pressure on water that the Tribe has a legal right to use based on a Supreme Court ruling more than a century ago. Margaret Scott is a member of the Winnebago Tribal Council. “The groundwater from the Dakota Sandstone Aquifer and the Missouri River are actually where our wells pull from in the Winnebago Reservation, and all the fresh water that sustains our community is actually from these two aquifers.” She says the Winnebago Tribal Council has approved a resolution opposing hyperscale data centers on or near its reservation. Google says it is still evaluating the Salix site and intends to consider local water resources as it develops plans. Scott notes Tribal leaders have attended meetings to make their position known, submitting written comments as Woodbury County consider rules for data centers. She emphasizes that the Tribe’s opposition to the hyperscale data center is deeper than just an objection to a neighborhood development. “This is a sovereignty issue, because whenever the U.S. government reserves land for an Indian Tribe, it’s implied that they reserve all the water necessary to sustain the Tribe now and into the future.” She adds that protecting the water matters for the Tribe's future generations, referencing a troubling global projection from UNICEF. “UNICEF’s actually saying by 2040, one in four children will be in water stress, meaning that they will have a very, you know, high lack of water.” Scott stresses that the Missouri River is part of the Tribe’s identity, history and way of life. She says the Tribe has given its contact information to Google and MidAmerican Energy, but neither have contacted Tribal leaders about the potential data center. Comedian and TV writer Joey Clift is out with his first book, “We’ve Been Here the Whole Time! A Not So Sacred Guide to All Things Native America.” The Cowlitz Tribal member says it is to help non-Natives better understand Indian Country. Brian Bull of Underscore Native News has this preview. Clift is the creative mind behind a viral video about cultural appropriation and “Pretendians”, which hit social media four years ago. “Just Because You Say You’re A Bear Doesn’t Make You A Bear” is a light-hearted short with a serious message. “If you wear the traditional clothing of a bear when telling a bear that you’re also a bear, you'll get mauled by that bear.” Clift sees humor as a way to ease some otherwise reluctant audiences into empathizing with other cultures and communities. “Comedy is a fantastic tool to educate people about something they’re not educated about. I feel like your average person is probably not going to sit down and watch a lecturer read a thousand-page book about the history of this continent. But if you can wrap some of those lessons into a two-minute comedy video full of jokes, it’s basically like putting some sugar and some candy around the medicine.” “I think that this book does a really good job of giving a base level Indian 101 conversation, covering a little bit of everything, things like history but also explaining things like the Land Back movement, and tribal enrollment, treaties, tribal sovereignty. I mean there’s an entire chapter about how cool my tribe’s casino is, y’know?” The book expounds on a 2022 video Clift produced that took high schools to task for limiting Native history to the pre-1900s, leaving the rest to general ignorance and Hollywood tropes. “We don’t have magic powers but I wish we did, ’cause I'd use them to make it so your school taught you that Native people can’t talk to animals instead of whatever the presidential fitness test is. You heard what I said!” Figures like Andrew Jackson, John Wayne, and Native-themed sports mascots also get called out, but it is not just ire and eyerolls. Clift also highlights notable Natives, from super athlete Jim Thorpe to Deb Haaland, the first Native person to serve as a U.S. Cabinet secretary. The overall goal is to have a few laughs, but also learn some new things. “I hope that this book is like, your first step into your Native education journey. And that your next step is to just inundate yourself with other cool Native orgs, artists, musicians and people to get even more educated about this. I’m just one person, so the only way to really get educated is to seek out other perspectives.” “We’ve Been Here the Whole Time” hits bookstores October 6.

What is the role of white women in Christian Nationalism? With the author of Live Laugh Love and Jesus and John Wayne, Kristin Kobes Du Mez. More about Dr. Du Mez and her incredible work and books: https://kristindumez.com The MUCH anticipated new book from professor Kristin Kobes Du Mez is here: Live Laugh Love: The Secret History of White Christian Women and the World they Made. It is something of a companion to her NYT bestseller, Jesus and John Wayne. Whereas Jesus and John Wayne took a look at the roots and creation of an idolatrous vision of Jesus as ruggedly masculine and pro-Christian Nationalism, this book looks at the parallel process for women -- and this glittering, seductively saccharine world that is prone to abuse and manipulation. It was, as she said, "supposed to be fun." But it turned in something far more sinister. Listen in for more. +++ Like what you hear? We are an entirely crowd-sourced, you-funded project.

Howard Hawks directs this grand western in which Montgomery Cliff maybe introduces Hollywood to The Method and John Wayne learns to act. It's a story about greed and America but it's not an open critique because it would be bad if we said America is bad. If nothing else John Wayne would quit the production.
Kristin Du Mez signed the contract for this book about a week before Beth Moore tweeted about Jesus and John Wayne, and that book took on a life of its own inside evangelical spaces. Then January 6th happened. So she wrote Live Laugh Love while still very much living inside the Jesus and John Wayne moment, which is partly her excuse for why it took so much longer than agreed — the other excuse being that once she started tracing what white Christian women were actually reading, buying, and building their lives around, she discovered she had to remap twentieth-century American religion. The neat boxes break down. Fundamentalist, evangelical, charismatic, mainline, Mormon, secular wellness — the women's cultural products cross all of them, and the through-line running underneath is New Thought. Here's the payoff that stopped me: what gets sold today as biblical womanhood traces back through Marabel Morgan's The Total Woman to Helen Andelin's Fascinating Womanhood to a set of 1920s booklets published by a New Thought press. They just added Bible verses to the top. We also got into the Amway tour, the rules against negativity, why toxic empathy makes perfect sense once you see the system, and — at the end — what she learned studying the German Christian movement that she cannot stop thinking about now. She's at Beer Camp in a few weeks. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube About our guest Dr. Kristin Kobes Du Mez is Professor of History at Calvin University in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and a Senior Democracy Fellow at the Public Religion Research Institute. She holds her PhD from the University of Notre Dame, with doctoral work on twentieth-century Germany and the German Christian movement. She writes Du Mez CONNECTIONS on Substack and co-hosts The Convocation Unscripted with Diana Butler Bass, Robert P. Jones, and Jemar Tisby.

New episode out now! We take a semi-detour to a galaxy far, far away with the season three episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, “Sphere of Influence”. We debate the role of the Jedi within the Republic and talk about how they serve as diplomats, law enforcement, security, advisors, monks, or investigators whenever the need arises. We discuss how this show is for children and therefore the “mystery” is highly simplified, think the tone can swing wildly between Saturday Morning Cartoon and complicated political intrigue, pick apart the sequel trilogy at length, and are mildly amused by the George Lucas self-insert character. We also talk about bonkers Star Wars nomenclature, think it is interesting that this episode dealt with the blocking of trade routes and frustration with a slow democratic process, and lament the oversaturation and corporatization of Star Wars media as a whole. Katy forgot about LEGOs, Carrie is haunted by images of dismemberment, Maddy has a skeleton friend, and Mack does a lot of explaining (and justifying). We also are very confused by the abundance of mismatched accents, touch on the topic of gender in a galaxy full of different alien species, discuss how sci-fi / fantasy mysteries are harder to judge as they have different rules, and Mack runs a mini-game where we try to differentiate between real and fake character names. Listen to hear more about familiar props, weird animation, The Fast and the Furious, cool stunt doubles, Arthurian knights, beach towels, and the mouths of Rodians. We also want to give a shout out to voice actors – within this episode you will hear our attempted impressions of various Star Wars characters as well as John Wayne, the Green Goblin, stun lasers, goats, and more!

Give to help Chris make Truce Kristin Kobes Du Mez is best known for her book Jesus and John Wayne, which looked at masculinity in American evangelicalism. Her new book, out now, does the same for femininity and positivity. Women today are often told to "live, laugh, love" and focus on the positive. They are to put mind over matter, even though that concept is not explicitly stated in the Bible. This attitude can make women susceptible to abusive relationships, scams, and multi-level marketing schemes. The book covers a wide swath of history, from Love Comes Softly to The Total Woman and the Little House books. Kristin and I had a lot of fun geeking out over history. I'm excited for you to hear it! Discussion Questions: What are some of the messages that women get in your type of Christianity? How do they differ from what men hear? What is Keswick Holiness? How did it inform the Pentecostal movement? What is New Thought? How do these ideas push people toward free-market capitalism? What about multi-level marketing? Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, I talk with Kristin Kobes Du Mez about her new book Live, Laugh Love: The Secret History of White Christian Womenand the World They Made. Listen to hear all about:How Live Laugh Love grew out of Kristin Kobes Du Mez's Jesus and John Wayne, shifting the focus from evangelical masculinity to the history and culture surrounding white Christian women. The surprising roots of “biblical womanhood” and hyper-femininity—and how ideas presented as timeless Christian gender roles have actually changed dramatically over time. How Christian romance novels, music, bookstores, mommy blogs, influencers, Hallmark movies, and other seemingly harmless pop culture helped create an entire ecosystem of Christian values and messaging. The fascinating overlap between evangelicalism, MLMs, capitalism, and positive-thinking culture—including why Kristin sees striking similarities between MLM structures and high-control religious systems. Why “I'm not political” can itself mask deeply political beliefs—and how ideas about faith and family quietly shape views on everything from education and immigration to welfare and economic policy.

John Wayne Walding spent seven years in 3rd Special Forces Group. On April 6, 2008 in Shok Valley, Afghanistan, a sniper shot took the lower half of his right leg. He tied it to his thigh and kept fighting. This episode is about April 7th—the hospital bed, the word “can't,” and the battles that don't come with a medal. John talks about being raised by his grandparents after both parents went to jail, becoming the first amputee to graduate Special Forces sniper school, choosing pain over pills, quitting drinking after Chris Kyle's death, 15 years of sobriety, and why every man needs mat carriers who will drag him to Jesus instead of the bar.Join Dustin Diefenderfer, Founder of MTNTOUGH Fitness Lab and creator of the MTNTOUGH+ Fitness App in the top podcast for Mental Toughness and Mindset.

We often credit the formation of our faith to our Sunday School teachers, youth group leaders and the pastors of our churches. But Kristin Kobes DuMez has research to show how our Christian discipleship is being formed outside the church just as much, or more, as it is on Sunday mornings. Her best selling book “Jesus and John Wayne” looked at the history of white, male evangelical Christianity and the . her new book, “Live, Laugh, Love” explores how catchphrases, lifestyle brands and (yes, still) the patriarchy have shaped white, evangelical women for decades.

In this month's movie review, Justin and I discuss the iconic 1969 classic True Grit, and compare it to the 2010 remake! We discuss who played the notorious Rooster Cogburn role better, John Wayne or Jeff Bridges? The original movies background story, vs some new added story lines in the new version, the simplistic story line that makes it a memorable movie, and John Wayne's academy award! We also review some well known bourbons, Jack Daniels and Evan Williams. Enjoy!
Let's all gather ‘round the campfire, Buckaroos and let Ol' Cactus Jim here tell you about some of today's hardy, hard-working cowboys. Yes, those manly men who live free-spirited, yippy-ti-yi-yo, cowboy lives out in the rustic ranch country of the Rocky Mountain West.Oh, wait – that was a century ago. The “cowboys” who're now humming “Home On The Range” across Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming are multimillionaire and billionaire corporate titan and celebrities like Rupert Murdoch and Bill Gates. They don't really live there nor mix with locals, no do they actually “ranch” their spectacular 300,000-acre spreads, since they don't know how.So they hire real ranching outfits to bring in some cattle, sheep, and other ranching accruements, then they fly in on private jets occasionally and strut around like John Wayne. They are in a word, pathetic.But they surely are land barons, spending up to $200 million each for their vast spreads. Indeed, these dilettantes rule the availability of ranchland and scenic wilderness, pricing out people who really want to ranch and locking out families who want to experience some of nature's most majestic rivers and mountains. Fifteen years ago, the biggest private landowners held 27 million acres; now they've grabbed 42 million acres for themselves.Well, say apologists for wealth concentration, they bought the land with their money, so it's fair and square. But hold on slick. They don't come just for the views, hunting, and exclusivity – their ranches get generous land subsidies, plus, states like Wyoming provide no-tax hideaways for their wealth.This is Jim Hightower saying… So, even though you and I are shut out of these gated land baronies, at least we can take pride in knowing that it's our tax dollars that help the rich buy them… and lock the gates.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

In this second part of a friendly, wide-ranging conversation, Pat Kahnke and co-host Renee Horsman talk with historian Kristin Kobes Du Mez about her new book Live, Laugh, Love: The Secret History of White Christian Women and the World They Made — the companion to Jesus and John Wayne. Kristin shares the erased story of Elisabeth Elliot's deconstruction era, why evangelical women were not simply tricked but taught, mentored and formed, and why patriarchy in evangelicalism would not survive if women weren't its most effective enforcers, authors and publishers.
Historian Kristin Kobes Du Mez, author of Jesus and John Wayne, explains how Christian nationalism and evangelical culture formed white evangelical women through fiction, MLMs and the parachurch system behind MAGA politics. Part 1 of 3. In this friendly, wide-ranging conversation, Pat Kahnke and co-host Renee Horsman talk with historian Kristin Kobes Du Mez about her new book Live, Laugh, Love: The Secret History of White Christian Women and the World They Made — and how it completes the story begun in Jesus and John Wayne. Kristin traces how everyday religious objects, devotionals, and Christian media disciple women into patriarchy, why evangelical fiction like Jeanette Oke bypasses critical thinking, why MLM psychology fits so neatly inside evangelical culture, and how a parachurch system built on holiness theology created what Kristin calls "THE SYSTEM."

rWotD Episode 3404: The Searchers Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Saturday, 29 August 2026, is The Searchers.The Searchers is a 1956 American epic Western film directed by John Ford and written by Frank S. Nugent, based on the 1954 novel by Alan Le May. It is set during the Texas–Indian wars and stars John Wayne as a middle-aged Civil War veteran who, accompanied by his adopted, partially Native American nephew (Jeffrey Hunter), spends years looking for his abducted niece (Natalie Wood). It was shot in VistaVision on Eastmancolor negative with processing and prints by Technicolor.The film was a critical and commercial success. Since its release, it has come to be considered a masterpiece and one of the greatest and most influential films ever made. It was named the greatest American Western by the American Film Institute in 2008, and it placed 12th on the same organization's 2007 list of the 100 greatest American movies of all time. Entertainment Weekly also named it the best Western. The British Film Institute's Sight and Sound magazine ranked it as the seventh-best film of all time based on a 2012 international survey of film critics and in 2008, the French magazine Cahiers du Cinéma ranked The Searchers number 10 in their list of the 100 best films ever made.In 1989, The Searchers was deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" by the United States Library of Congress and was selected for preservation in its National Film Registry; it was one of the first 25 films selected for the registry.The Searchers was perhaps the first major film to have an intentionally filmed documentary about the making of it, requested by John Ford. It deals with most aspects of making the film, including preparation of the site, construction of props, and filming techniques.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:16 UTC on Saturday, 29 August 2026.For the full current version of the article, see The Searchers 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 Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Ivy.
In Southern Oregon, the historic Wolf Creek Inn has welcomed travelers, celebrities, and curious guests since the 1800s. Originally built along the Applegate Trail, it became a popular stop for settlers, miners, stagecoach passengers, and later railroad and highway travelers. The inn has hosted famous guests including Jack London, John Wayne, Clark Gable, Carole Lombard, Orson Welles, and Sir Anthony Hopkins. Jack London especially loved the inn, spending a summer writing there, and his former room is now preserved in his honor. Today, Wolf Creek Inn is the oldest continuously operating hotel in the Pacific Northwest and a historic Oregon landmark. But Wolf Creek Inn may have more than just famous guests. Visitors and staff have reported footsteps, mysterious voices, flickering lights, apparitions, strange dreams, and objects flying across rooms. Ghostly entities reportedly include a female stagecoach driver, the spirit of Jack London, and even stories of a bizarre vampire-like creature roaming the hotel! Just a few miles away, the Golden State Heritage Site, a former mining town now considered a ghost town, has its own spooky reputation, including shadow figures and the spirit of a preacher. With decades of paranormal activity, the Wolf Creek Inn may be one of Southern Oregon's most intriguing haunted hotels. Visit our website! Find us on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Patreon, & more!

PETER SHERAYKO Actor, Author, Producer, Western Historian Actor, author and producer Peter Sherayko has appeared in over 50 films, 100 television shows and 50 stage plays from Tombstone to Cody: An Evening with Buffalo Bill. Peter was one of the executive producers on 2015's Bone Tomahawk. So far, Peter has produced seven shows with three more in the works, written five books and created a CD of poetry. Peter is a bit of a character, well known for his Western look, cigar in hand and dog by his side. Additionally, Peter wedded his passion for entertainment and American history to form Caravan West Productions, the largest and best company to bring quality to the Hollywood Western and provide today's demanding film audience with the most authentic product possible. Together, they provide multiple services for films, television and commercials, including a 2400 acre ranch location, historically correct props, sets, costumes, and horses. Sherayko is recognized as historian and author, appearing in numerous Wild West Tech episodes for the History Channel and serving as technical consultant and supplier to both History Channel and Discovery Channel. He technically advised several films and stunt coordinated six. A body of Western related programming on both sides of the camera draws upon Peter's knowledge of the nineteenth century up to the 1920s to supply the weapons and props demanded by numerous film makers for their historical re-creations. The taped version of his one-man show, Cody...An Evening with Buffalo Bill was performed in a chataugua and was among the top finalists in the Santa Clarita International Film Festival when produced. He also released a CD At Your Service and hosted Varmint Media's The Guns of Billy the Kid. The State of Nebraska awarded him the Buffalo Bill Award for Achievements in Family Entertainment. As a member of the U.S. Air Force, he served with the "last of the flying tigers" (the 75th F.I.S. A.D.C.), working as a radio disc jockey in Virginia before returning to college to receive a B.A. in Theatre and an M.A. in Communications. Peter resides in Agua Dulce with his wife Susan and their menagerie of horses and dogs. Whether loading up for an entertainment project in the making or taking care of a complete petting zoo for a friend, there's never a dull moment here. "When you live in a rural landscape, it is a joy every morning that you get to create from home." Sherayko's passion for Westerns is clearly reflected in his body of work. Peter doesn't just work on Western films, he lives them.

Westward Ho! continues with a look at The Duke and his western "romantic" comedy McLintock! While neither of us are John Wayne fans, we thought it only appropriate to include one of his films in this series, and we picked one that has the appropriate amount of misogyny. From spankings to clay slide fights, we pick apart the very odd, fetish-y film that stars not just John Wayne but also his son Patrick - a true family affair.Stick with us all August for our Red Hot Action Summer!
Listen in this week as Cody and Jimbo visit with John Wayne's granddaughter. So many great stories about the Duke himself. You most definitely won't want to miss this one!!

Cahill U.S. Marshal is one of the lesser-known late-career John Wayne westerns, and for good reason. Released during a period when the Western genre was rapidly evolving, Cahill feels caught between old-school Wayne heroics and the grittier, morally complex revisionist Westerns audiences were beginning to prefer. Why didn't it leave more of an impact? Why has it largely faded into obscurity among Wayne's filmography?____Please consider joining our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/wwibofficialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@whywasntitbetterLetterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/wwibpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/wwib_officialX: https://x.com/WWIBpodcastSubscribe!

Kristin Kobes Du Mez, professor of history at Calvin University and author of Jesus and John Wayne, joins Will Wright and Pastor Josh Burtram to explain how white evangelical ideas about masculinity helped shape American Christianity and American politics. Du Mez traces the rise of rugged Christian manhood through culture, Cold War politics, the Religious Right, Ronald Reagan, fear of feminism and secularism, anti-Muslim rhetoric, and the culture war machinery that turns complicated issues into loyalty tests. She also connects masculine power to institutional self-protection, including the Southern Baptist Convention's response to women in leadership and sexual abuse reform. This conversation is not just about men. It is about how gender, theology, fear, capitalism, and political power worked together to shape modern white evangelicalism, and why America's 250th raises urgent questions about religious liberty and democracy.Guest BioKristin Kobes Du Mez, PhD, is a historian, New York Times bestselling author, and professor of history at Calvin University. Her work focuses on the intersection of gender, religion, politics, and American evangelicalism. She is the author of Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation, A New Gospel for Women, and the forthcoming Live Laugh Love: The Secret History of White Christian Women and the World They Made. She is also a Senior Democracy Fellow with PRRI. In this conversation, Du Mez helps explain how white evangelical ideas about masculinity, femininity, fear, family, politics, and power shaped the modern church and the country around it.Book MentionedJesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation by Kristin Kobes Du MezBookshop.org: https://bookshop.org/a/112456/9781631499050Live Laugh Love: The Secret History of White Christian Women and the World They Made by Kristin Kobes Du MezBookshop.org: https://bookshop.org/a/112456/9781324090977Relevant Links & ResourcesKristin Kobes Du Mez Official WebsiteURL: https://kristindumez.com/ Support Sarah Stankorb's work and preorder Damned If She Does: Why Women Quit Church and What It Means for the Future of Religion, Releases September 15, 2026.

Kristin Du Mez's book Jesus and John Wayne changed the way that America sees evangelicals. It even inspired many evangelical women to leave the church, giving them words for the gender inequalities they'd felt all along.Our guest host Aimee Saunders, a Red Wine & Blue organizer in Pennsylvania, is one of these women. She grew up in the evangelical church and did everything that was expected of her: submitting to her husband, homeschooling her kids, and not pursuing her own career. It didn't feel right, but she was told that she was the problem. She just had to pray and obey harder. But reading Jesus and John Wayne with a virtual bookclub six years ago, Aimee realized she needed to break up with the evangelical church.Kristin Du Mez has a new book coming out in September, Live Laugh Love: The Secret History of White Christian Women and the World They Made. Aimee and Kristin's conversation about gender, community, politics, and the church was fascinating... Aimee lived the history that Kristin writes about in her books! Whether you're from the evangelical world yourself or it's brand new to you, there's something for everyone to learn from these smart thoughtful women.For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.

Send us Fan MailOur “Don't Mess With Texas” theme continues with one of the most iconic episodes in Texas history; “The Alamo.” We chose the 2004 version of this movie, which is a little more historically accurate than the 1960 John Wayne epic. Directed by John Lee Hancock and starring Billy Bob Thornton and Dennis Quaid, this film tells the story of Santa Anna's siege of the Alamo and the battle for Texan independence. We also have a crash course on the history of the state of Texas, and the events leading up to the titular event. So. . . Remember the Alamo! . . . and also that there's no basement there. . .
Guest host Krish Dhanam reflects on why America still matters as the nation celebrates its 250th anniversary. Drawing from his journey from India to the United States, he recounts the people and moments that shaped his admiration for the American experiment—from John Wayne's screen portrayals of courage and the Apollo moon landing to Ronald Reagan's optimism and his own arrival with nine dollars to his name. Dhanam argues that gratitude is essential to preserving liberty, especially when political anger, historical amnesia, and cultural division threaten to obscure the nation's founding ideals. He revisits the courage of the Founders, George Washington's victory at Trenton, and the responsibility that accompanies constitutional rights. His warning is direct: Americans cannot allow comfort or complacency to blind them to threats within and beyond the country. Remembering America's history, recovering gratitude, and accepting the responsibility of citizenship are necessary if the republic is to endure.

What does it mean to have the American can-do spirit — and who best embodied it during the most turbulent century in our nation's history? Author Richard Battle joins Newt to discuss his new book, AmeriCANS Who Made America: 20th Century — The American Century, the fourth volume in his celebrated series. Battle profiles 43 patriots, leaders, and innovators who carried America forward through the Spanish flu, two World Wars, the Great Depression, the Civil Rights Movement, and the Space Race. The conversation brings several of them to life: Audie Murphy, the orphaned farm boy who became World War II's most decorated soldier; John Wayne, who used film to inspire patriotism; Ronald Reagan, the everyday American who became president; Martin Luther King Jr., who achieved more for civil rights in 13 years than the previous 350; and Hedy Lamarr, the Hollywood star whose wartime invention became the foundation of Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The actor John Wayne oozed tough. He was a man's man who was not only tough in his movies, but he was rugged in private life. Wayne's acting career began in 1939 and lasted for 40 years with the actor appearing in more than 100 movies. He won an Oscar, fathered seven children, loved multiple women, battled cancer twice and left behind an amazing legacy. The actor may have also left behind his spirit.
