The U.S.S. Constitution - affectionately dubbed "Old Ironsides" - is a symbol of resilience, strength, history and honor. It stands out on the Boston skyline, and so does the woman at the helm! Commander Billie J. Farrell is the first woman to ever command the vessel, leading dozens of sailors, and she's had a storied career in the Navy. In April, she'll be receiving the "Third Lantern" award from Old North Illuminated at the "Lanterns & Luminaries" event. Commander Farrell talks with Nichole about her journey through the Navy, what it's like living as a transplant in New England, the legacy she wants to leave behind to women in the service, and the upcoming award ceremony.

This week on The Codcast, CommonWealth Beacon's Jennifer Smith sits down with Billie J. Farrell, the first woman commander of the historic USS Constitution. They discuss her path to the post, the ship's role in naval history, and how she keeps that history alive for the public.

Hemp was grown by many notable Americans such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay, Zachary Taylor, among many others. 3. Hemp fiber was used in the production of rope and sheets, and, consequently, became the fiber- of- choice for the British Navy and, later, the American Navy, during the War of 1812. More than 88 tons of hemp was used for the rigging and sails of "Old Ironsides." 4. Kentucky became the largest single producer of hemp in the world, next to Russia, during the early years of the 19th Century. 5. Hemp produced the fiber- of- choice during World War II for the production of parachutes, Army knapsacks, clothing, and even motor vehicle seats, dashboards, and flooring.

Shortly after the Revolutionary War, it was apparent that the United States needed a new Navy to protect its interests overseas. The USS Constitution along with five other warships were built and immediately sailed into battle. After 225 years of service, it's amazing that she can still be making history. This January, CDR Billie Farrell became the first female to take command of the Constitution and we are honored to sit down with her to talk about “Old Ironsides” and the roll she plays in today's Navy.

Episode 60 brings us a Dumb Birthday Game from October 21st, 1995 I’ve titled this: Wild Abandon. Not only because of what Norm says but also because of one of the players. And listen closely as we get a couple of definitions of ‘wild abandon.’ We begin with Norm and Jack Harte talking about the tag line “Welcome to our world!” on the Air Canada commercial which leads to some voice lessons from Jack. And speaking of welcomes…Bonjour, France! Yet another country added to our simmering fandom. And the timing couldn’t be better as France plays a role in the DBG too! The players: Jack Harte Ed LeClair producing and playing Kevin in Kittery ME Sally from Reading Mary Ellen in Braintree Larry in Orleans on the Cape who can’t say when he’s enjoyed himself, though he can’t stop talking. Bdays: Whitey Ford Carrie Fisher Elvin Bishop George Bell Dates in History: First lightbulb that really worked was turned on by Thomas Edison in Menlo Park. Women in France were allowed to vote for the first time. Norm sings “La Vie En Rose” Then Norm AND Jack go all French on us! The U.S.S. Constitution “Old Ironsides” was launched. I will inform you that the tape ends, switches sides and then we hear the close of the game but there’s quite a nice prize for the winner.

Ben speaks with Ellery Foutch, assistant professor in American studies at Middlebury College, about a “relic Windsor chair” assembled by Henry Sheldon (founder of the Middlebury museum named in his honor) in 1884. This unusual piece of furniture was built with woods salvaged from structures with local or national significance—such as the warship Old Ironsides, the William Penn House in Philadelphia, and a colonial whipping post.

One of America's famous New Englanders, Oliver Wendell Holmes, devoted his life principally to medicine.

It was just 209 years ago today, August 19, 1812, when the U.S.S. Constitution earned her nickname “Old Ironsides” after whooping up on the British frigate Guerriere off the coast of Canada. Taking the war to the British, under the leadership of Captain Isaac Hull, the Constitution wreaked havoc on British shipping. Prior to the battle, she had just sunk three British merchantmen near the St. Lawrence River. Made from solid oak, “Old Ironsides” did quick work on her British counterpart, easily disabling the mizenmast (rear mast) of the British ship, and with the Constitution having 56 guns to the... For the written story, read here >> https://www.signalsaz.com/articles/this-day-in-history-august-19th-2021-old-ironsides/

Exploring what fun historical event took place on this day

Photo:  USS Constitution, “Old Ironsides,” gets under way for a turnaround cruise in Boston Harbor. . CBS Eye on the World with John Batchelor CBS Audio Network @Batchelorshow Patrick O'Donnell. #Unbound. The complete eighty-minute interview, June 6, 2021. The Indispensables: The Diverse Soldier-Mariners Who Shaped the Country, Formed the Navy, and Rowed Washington Across the Delaware. Kindle Edition. by Patrick K. O'Donnell  https://www.amazon.com/Indispensables-Diverse-Soldier-Mariners-Washington-Delaware-ebook/dp/B08M12FQ85 On the stormy night of August 29, 1776, the Continental Army faced annihilation after losing the Battle of Brooklyn. The British had trapped George Washington's army against the East River, and the fate of the Revolution rested upon the soldier-mariners from Marblehead, Massachusetts. One of the country's first diverse units, they pulled off an “American Dunkirk” and saved the army by navigating the treacherous river to Manhattan. At the right time in the right place, the Marbleheaders, a group of white, black, Hispanic, and Native American soldiers, repeatedly altered the course of events, and their story shines new light on our understanding of the American Revolution. As the historian Patrick K. O'Donnell recounts, beginning nearly a decade before the war started, Marbleheaders such as Elbridge Gerry and Azor Orne spearheaded the break with Britain and helped shape the United States through governing, building alliances, seizing British ships, forging critical supply lines, and establishing the origins of the US Navy. The Marblehead Regiment, led by John Glover, became truly indispensable. Marbleheaders battled at Lexington and on Bunker Hill and formed the elite Guard that protected George Washington, foreshadowing today's Secret Service. Then the special operations–like regiment, against all odds, conveyed 2,400 of Washington's men across the ice-filled Delaware River on Christmas night of 1776, delivering the surprise attack on Trenton that changed the course of history . . . The Marbleheaders' story, never fully told before now, makes The Indispensables a vital addition to the literature of the American Revolution.

Commander John A. Benda, the 76th commanding officer of the USS CONSTITUTION, tells us a bit about the oldest commissioned warship afloat in the world,  and its crew of 80 active-duty sailors.  We hear about George Sirian's 50-year naval career, which began when he arrived on the ship orphaned in the Greek war for independence, and about the Pope's visit, and CONSTITUTION's encounters in Vietnam in the 1840s, and how the ship represents the nation and the Navy today.

In this nautical edition of the PPP, we proclaim the history and poetry of the USS Constitution. We sail through the storied past of one of the United States of America's first naval innovations and how early American naval strategy was designed to play out.We look at the service history of the ship and the gallant actions of her captains and crew. We then go on to delve the depths of public opinion and the role Holmes' poem played in galvanizing the people to demand that they ship be spared the scrapyard.This episode was more history lesson than sermon, but even still, we discuss what it means to admire and remember out past. We discuss the art of inspiration and look at a way to spur others on to a worthy cause. We ask ourselves if history is worth preserving and what we gain from it. Is it mere sentiment, or is it a mythology that helps us become who we desire to be.“Old Ironsides" by Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.Aye tear her tattered ensign downLong has it waved on high,And many an eye has danced to see That banner in the sky;Beneath it rung the battle shout,And burst the cannon's roar;—The meteor of the ocean airShall sweep the clouds no more.Her deck, once red with heroes' blood,Where knelt the vanquished foe,When winds were hurrying o'er the flood,And waves were white below,No more shall feel the victor's tread,Or know the conquered knee;—The harpies of the shore shall pluckThe eagle of the sea!Oh, better that her shattered hulkShould sink beneath the wave;Her thunders shook the mighty deep,And there should be her grave;Nail to the mast her holy flag,Set every threadbare sail,And give her to the god of storms,The lightning and the gale!

Service in the military can take you to some pretty interesting and exotic places. For the Northwest native we feature today, service in the Navy took him back in time. Today we salute Aviation Ordnanceman Third Class Ziven Meyer of the United States Navy. Ziven is a native of the northwest and a graduate of Olympic High School in Bremerton. He has served on active duty in the Navy for 2 years, and he just re-upped for an additional 6 more years of service. Meyer has been serving the history of the US Navy aboard the USS Constitution, the oldest commissioned warship afloat. The Constitution is also known as “Old Ironsides” and has served the US in the War of 1812 and the Barbary Wars. She was undefeated in battle and captured 33 opponents during her patrol of the world’s shipping lanes. "It was an honor and a privilege to serve aboard the Constitution", Ziven says "One I will never forget". The next six years of Meyer's life will probably take place on newer equipment, but the adventure will be just as epic. Today we salute Aviation Ordnanceman Third Class Ziven Meyer of the United States Navy.

This episode gets into a few battles. We’ll briefly talk about the Army’s failure to invade Canada and move into a famous battle at sea involving the Constitution and the Guerriere.

In the capitol, David Panush is known as a longtime staffer and top-level expert on health care policy - usually one of our first calls when getting background on a convoluted healthcare story - but after dark he sheds the coat and tie and heads up a rock group called Remedy 7 (even the band name is healthcare-related!) The other members of the group are an eclectic mix, including a lobbyist, a water policy wonk and an Assembly chief of staff. David sat down with Capitol Weekly's John Howard and Tim Foster (who has played in more than a few rock and roll bands) to talk about mixing work and pleasure, and how his policy work inspired one of the group's best tunes. Remedy 7 have just released a CD of original songs and will be holding a record release party at Old Ironsides on March 21. More details here: https://www.r7sacramento.com

: Medical Cannabis and how it is helping our Veteran community. TROY BIO: Troy Bowyer was Born and raised in Missouri. His father and uncles all served in the military. Troy’s Cousins, brother and mother served as well. Troy joined the Army in 2005 where he Completed OSUT at Fort Knox. Troy trained and became a 63A, which is an M1A1 Abrams Tank Systems Maintainer, however, the tank mechanics worked on EVERYTHING. Tank Mechanics are a bit different because not just anyone could work on a turbine engine. During Troy’s time in the military, all the other careers knew the Tank Mechanics were the best. Troy also served as an M88 operator, A heavy equipment recovery vehicle. The beast of all beasts.Troy’s First duty station was Camp Casey, Korea. E Co 2/9 Infantry. Second To None! While serving there, Troy suffered an injury where he Herniated his L-4, L-5 disk completing the Manchu Mile. That is a 28 mile ruck march with a 60 pack. It is conducted every year in remembrance of an 85-mile forced march undertaken by soldiers from the 9th Infantry Regiment during the Chinese "Boxer Rebellion" in 1900. This Ruck March represented something powerful and it was a pretty extreme challenge for Troy to be a part of. Troy left S. Korea in June of 2007. He then Took that 30 days of PCS leave and went to Ft. Riley, Kansas. Troy Deployed on back to back tours in Iraq with the Big Red One where he was part of a unit being stood up. At that time, we were the Old Ironsides. Troy made it through some miserable times with some good people from that unit where he pushed through a lot of physical pain to do those deployments.Troy is now a 10 year Medically Retired SGT, part-time gunsmith with three crazy boys, a lovely wife, a rescued dog, and an evil cat, Lilith. She protects the house because the dog is too busy sleeping. Fortunately, the folks Troy work with and for, now, they are good people and understand his situation. Troy’s workload and man hours are completely up to him. Troy also tries to volunteer to help my fellow Veterans when he can. Throughout the last 10 years Troy has had four back surgeries to include a double spinal cord stimulator. Troy has had One surgery a year over the last 7-8 years, which come at a substantial price to his mind and body. Troy tries to maintain a positive outlook because he knows “it could always be worse”.

“Don’t give up the ship!”   This is the story of the first two years of the War of 1812, and it seems quite backwards. Despite expectations, the Americans are trying and failing (miserably) to invade Canada. The only thing more confusing is that the US Navy is holding its own against the British on the high seas ... well, at first, that is. Several major events happen in these two years: Indian coalition leader Tecumseh makes his last stand; the USS Constitution earns an enduring nickname; and the US Navy acquires a new saying that will stick with it through the centuries: “don’t give up the ship!” In short: welcome to the War of 1812.

The early months of the War of 1812 served up a relentless drumbeat of bad news for the United States: our untrained and ill-equipped forces, fighting a war they were unprepared for in the first place, suffered reverse after reverse on the battlefield. But on the high seas, the exploits of one remarkable ship, the USS Constitution, provided the only bright spot in the gloom and demonstrated that the new republic could, when circumstances called for it, compete militarily even with the greatest naval power on Earth. Sent to patrol the Atlantic coast, the Constitution and her captain quickly found themselves tangling with the overconfident British commander James Dacres, who went so far as to capture an American vessel and write a literal taunt into her log daring an American frigate to come out and fight him. The result was a thrilling real-life adventure involving a desperate chase, booming cannons, crackling muskets and every cliché you’ve ever seen in a nautical adventure film from the Age of Sail—except in this case it really happened. Sean Munger takes you into the thick of naval warfare in the War of 1812 with the story of the USS Constitution, her commanders, officers and the Royal Navy captains who found themselves surprisingly shaken at staring down her 44 guns. In this episode you’ll understand exactly why the Constitution was created in the first place, you’ll learn what “kedging” is, you’ll understand how the Constitution got her nickname “Old Ironsides,” and you’ll gain a glimpse as to why the British were so surprised at the naval prowess of the upstart Americans. This episode is pure adventure—all the stuff of a Patrick O’Brian novel, with the added benefit of being true. Additional materials and photos available at the website for this episode.

Glenn Hughes is the Extension Forestry Professor at Mississippi State University. In this episode, he discusses the importance of the Longleaf Pine to our state’s history. Up until 1890, harvested trees were transported by teams of oxen. Hughes explains how advances in technology led to the clear-cutting of our pine forests. He also reveals South Mississippi's connection to America’s most famous battleship – the USS Constitution –commissioned in 1797 and known as Old Ironsides. PODCAST EXTRA: Early in our state’s history, pine tree sap was harvested for a variety of uses. Hughes defines the term “naval stores” and explains its importance.

Over its 70- year history, the school was a "unique educational utopia" and an incubator for black intellect that taught values and life skills for black children, according to the film.   The school, The Tuskegee of The North, bloodlines go back to Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. DuBois.    The school was forced to close due to the Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court decision. It has since been converted to a juvenile detention center. We'll discuss this conspiracy to transforms our Historical Black educational Institutes into a state of obscurity    Bordentown School, also known as Old Ironsides, a prestigious historical Black school founded by a former enslaved minister, Reverend Walter Rice was forced to close as a result of the Brown v.
