Podcast appearances and mentions of Orrin Hatch

I am honored to release this tribute episode to my late father-in-law Senator Orrin Hatch. He was a true gentleman and lived his life with integrity and respect for others. He fought for what he knew was right and wasn't influenced by party politics. He showed us how to mix church and state and never backed away from his faith. His ability to work across party lines made him one of the most powerful United States senators in history. His devotion to doing the right thing despite the political pressures is inspiring. His dedication to his country, family, and living the principles of the gospel of Jesus Christ became his legacy. I am so grateful for the three decades, he influenced my life for good. He loved me and everyone around him and knew how to support and love and lift others. I hope you enjoy this inspiring episode that is a tribute to the incredible man he was, known to many as the gentleman of the Senate.❤️

This week Mark and Allen break down the Episode where we actually meet one of Ron's brothers in person! Leslie and April are headed to Washington D.C. to convince a bunch of senators to support the National Parks. They've prepped, and Leslie is excited, convinced that April will show how thorough and hardworking she truly is. However, April is quietly freaking out about having to break it to Leslie that bureaucracy is not her calling ... as a friend, Leslie is loyal, thoughtful, and caring to a fault, but she's also stubborn and thoroughly convinced she knows what's best, not only for herself, but for literally everyone around her. As Leslie, April, and teammate Randy have meeting after meeting with senators, it seems like things are going well ... They're getting decent responses from senators, and during a one-on-one walk with Randy, Leslie is even offered a promotion to the position of Deputy Director of Operations and Interior. Despite all this, we see April just getting more and more anxious about telling Leslie the truth. Finally, while sitting with Leslie and listening to her news about the offered promotion, April finally gives in to her anxieties and blurts out that she wants to quit the National Parks Service. Meanwhile, knowing April is unhappy with her current job situation, Andy waits until she is gone on her trip to D.C. (see the A-Story above), then reaches out to Ben to brainstorm some new jobs April could pursue. Their first stop is meeting with Ron at the Very Good Building and Development company, Ron tries his best to help, but unfortunately, the routine work available there doesn't quite fit April's need to think creatively. Nevertheless, Ron joins Andy and Ben in trying to find the perfect job for April. Their second stop is a meeting with Barney Varmn at Tilton and Radomski Accounting, who (along with everyone else at the accounting firm) absolutely LOVES Ben. Anyway, Barney tells them Tilton and Radomski is opening a consulting arm, which would involve a lot of creative thinking. The good news? This sounds like it *could* be a good fit for April. The bad news? It's too late, and they aren't taking any more applicants. However, after discussing it, the guys decide they will make one last final attempt to pitch April to Barney. As always, we tackle the tough questions, such as ... How does Leslie take April's news? Who else do the guys get to help with their final pitch to Barney? Does Leslie end up taking the promotion? What secret plan does Andy have to help convince Barney? Will Leslie have to lean on her good friend Madeleine Albright for advice? Do the guys make a successful pitch, and if so, does April end up working for Barney? Can April ever figure out what job she actually wants? Loyal podcast viewers, April's job arc seems to be drawing to a close ... or is it? Stay tuned to find out! Many thanks to our incredible sponsor ... the Very Good Building and Development Company.

Many a young idealist register for law school with visions of Atticus Finch dancing in their heads, but only the rarest few have those dreams come true. NITA Trustee Emeritus and national treasure James Brosnahan is among them. In Episode 49, this legendary legend reflects on a life in law that has included face-to-face encounters with such cognoscenti as Chief Justice Warren Burger, Senator Orrin Hatch, and the Kennedys. He also talks about his viral LinkedIn series on vocal quality and breaks down the six essential qualities of a commanding speaking voice that have served him well over his 60+ years in the courtroom. 4:28   Voice quality videos on LinkedIn9:05   Evaluating your own voice quality11:25 Tempo17:22 Volume20:53 Tone and mood25:16 Warmup exercises28:20 Emphasis and emotion30:06 Speech harmonizing and collecting voices35:15 Favorite voices37:05 Clarity42:59 Pauses41:57 Arguing before SCOTUS52:04 Interrogation by Orrin Hatch56:21 Controversial representations1:00:16 Defending the Constitution1:03:35 Speaking truth to power1:07:29 Boston Irish and the Kennedy agenda1:14:39 What Jim has learned at NITA1:19:03 Signoff questionsQuote“The goal, which is not easy, is to be like an actor who can throw the voice up into the second balcony.

Today's Republican party looks a lot different than it did just a few decades ago, but it rests on many of the same organizations and ideologies that formed the modern conservative movement in the 1970s. In this episode, Rick Perlstein joins us for a conversation about his newest book Reaganland: America's Right Turn, 1976-1980 and how Ronald Reagan, Orrin Hatch and other prominent Republicans were able to harness the social and political forces of the 1970s to form the modern GOP. Rick Perlstein is the award-winning author of multiple New York Times bestsellers, including Reaganland (Simon & Schuster, 2020), Nixonland: The Rise of a President and the Fracturing of America (Scribner, 2009) and Before the Storm: Barry Goldwater and the Unmaking of the American Consensus (Bold Type Books, 2009), as well as a board member at InTheseTimes.com. You can follow him on twitter at @RickPerlstein. In this conversation we also discussed Rick's recent article “This Is Us: Why the Trump Era Ended in Violence,” The New Republic, January 20, 2021. This is an edited rebroadcast of RTN #199, which originally aired on June 14, 2021. Both the original episode and this rebroadcast were edited by Gary Fletcher.

David Jones is the Executive Director of the High Tech Inventors Alliance (HTIA), which advocates on patent policy issues on behalf of some of the largest tech companies in the world.  When Dave became the head of HTIA in 2019, it seemed that DC was finally turning against the “patent troll” narrative driving patent policy in Congress and the executive branch.  However, that did not last long: efforts to pass Section 101 reform failed to gain traction in Congress; the current administration rolled back efforts to restrain the role of the PTAB under the previous administration; and an unprecedented lobbying effort spurred the Chief Judge of the Western District of Texas to randomly reassign new patent cases filed in Judge Alan Albright's division.  All outcomes that members of the HTIA supported. This episode features a wide-ranging and super fun conversation about if (and how) Dave has been so effective as head of HTOA over the last few years and/or if he's just that lucky. Prior to taking the helm at HTIA, Dave was assistant general counsel for IP policy at Microsoft and worked for Senator Orrin Hatch on IP issues for many years.  Dave is able to draw on those experiences to provide priceless – and often surprising - insights about how patent policies are shaped.

Writer and filmmaker William Doyle joins us to talk about his new book "Titan of the Senate." It tells the story of the longest-serving Republican Senator, Orrin Hatch of Utah. Sen. Hatch served from 1977-2019 and passed away at the age of 88 in April of 2022. Mr. Doyle argues that Senator Hatch's legislative achievements earn him the nod as the greatest U.S. Senator in modern times. Senator Hatch authored nearly 800 bills, including bipartisan efforts on HIV/AIDS, generic drugs, civil rights, and the Americans with Disabilities Act. He often teamed up with his political opposite, the late Massachusetts Senator Ted Kennedy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Senator Orrin Hatch co-wrote the most sweeping civil rights bill since the 1960s, launched a health insurance program for 25,000,000 uninsured children, co-created the generic drug industry, and championed the greatest HIV/AIDS legislation in American history, while sponsoring or co-sponsoring over 750 pieces of legislation. Based on interviews with Hatch and many of his Senate colleagues plus over 10,000 pages of research from the U.S. Senate Historian's files, this is also the story of a leader who envisions a New Golden Age of Bipartisanship for the future of American politics.

In this episode, Tom discusses his career, local politics, and the proper role of journalism. He's covered all things Davis County while managing editor of the Davis County Clipper and now Editor for The Davis Journal.  Tom began his journalism career working with Senator Orrin Hatch. Of his experiences he wrote: "I met Orrin Hatch in 1976, when I was interviewing candidates campaigning for the Republican nomination to run against three-time Democratic incumbent Frank Moss. It was in July, the state convention had been held and Hatch had emerged slightly behind favorite Jack Carlson but with enough delegates to earn a spot in the September primary. Both Carlson and Hatch were making the newspaper interview circuit, including to the Daily Herald in Provo where I was a reporter. Hatch came into the newspaper along with his campaign manager, a guy named Mac Haddow. Hatch's interview with me was much different than Jack Carlson's. He looked me in the eyes when he spoke, his answers seemed more sincere and genuine.  Two weeks later, Haddow called me and said, “What do you think of my boy?” I told him I was impressed. He told me Hatch was impressed by me, then asked if I had a desire to help with Hatch's campaign. It would be volunteer work – no pay and after hours – and I'd have to drive back and forth from Provo to Salt Lake City several times a week to their headquarters. Their office was in a rented house on 400 South across the street from Chuck-A-Rama (the houses were torn down years ago and a hotel now sits on the site). Being a political junkie in those days (as I still am), I jumped at the chance. So for no pay, on my own time, and simply for the experience, I worked with Orrin for the next eight weeks prior to the primary election. I accompanied him on several public appearances, helping with a few press releases from his campaign, giving him a little media coaching, etc. In turn, I did enjoy some free meals at Chuck-A-Rama and some great experiences working on a national campaign." -"Remembering Orrin Hatch and our First Meeting In Provo" by Tom Heraldson https://www.valleyjournals.com/2022/05/12/400102/remembering-orrin-hatch-and-our-first-meeting-in-provo

He defeated a popular Democratic senator, arguing that three terms were enough, and then proceeded to serve more than twice as long (seven terms) — longer than any Republican in Senate history. During those 42 years, this conservative loyalist teamed up with a liberal lion, Sen. Ted Kennedy, to create the Children's Health Insurance Program and the Americans with Disability Act. He eventually became among the staunchest defenders of Donald Trump, shepherding through a major tax overhaul and helping to shape the conservative majority of today's Supreme Court. These justices appear poised to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade decision, which gave women a constitutional right to abortion. Through it all, Orrin Hatch, who died April 23 at age 88, often touted his membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and championed the cause of religious liberty. In fact, historian Benjamin Park says in a recent Washington Post piece, Hatch helped transform the nation's Latter-day Saints into one of the most reliably red voting blocs. On this week's show, Park discusses the late senator, his influence, his politics, his piety and his place in history.

When I read the news that longtime US senator Orrin Hatch at passed away at the age of 88, I thought of only one person: Eric Loomis (@ErikLoomis) Associate Professor of history at the University of Rhode Island. Eric just wrote a deep dive on The Editorial Board on Hatch's complicated legacy, one that was at times surprising for someone with a reputation of being a relative moderate with some real bipartisan accomplishments. Senator Hatch's career provides a lens into the evolution of the Republican Party.

Salt Lake Tribune television critic Scott D. Pierce joins “The Daily Buzz” to talk the Hulu's new serious “Under the Banner of Heaven,” which comes out on Thursday. And Utah Sens. Mike Lee and Mitt Romney reacted to reports that President Joe Biden was getting closer to making a decision on student debt. Former Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch, who died on Saturday, will be honored at the Utah Capitol Rotunda next week before his funeral on Friday.

The Boys are keeping a close watch on Twitter, as the social media platform and Elon Musk could reach a deal today. Authorities are still looking for Specialist Bishop Evans, the Texas National Guardsman who went missing trying to rescue two illegal immigrants. Jen Psaki thinks people just don't understand President Biden's “magic”, and Milani Cosmetics caught Amber Heard lying about Johnny Depp bruises.
