In this episode of The Georgia Politics Podcast, we sit down with former Congressman Bob Barr for Part 1 of our in-depth conversation about his remarkable career in public service. Barr reflects on his early work as a CIA analyst during the Cold War, offering a rare glimpse into the world of intelligence and the global tensions that shaped U.S. policy at the time. He then takes us through his years in Congress, sharing what it was like to navigate the political landscape of Washington during a transformative era in American politics. Most notably, Barr discusses his high-profile role as one of the House Impeachment Managers during the impeachment trial of President Bill Clinton—offering firsthand insight into one of the most dramatic constitutional confrontations in modern history. Throughout the conversation, Barr speaks candidly about the challenges of balancing national security with civil liberties, the evolution of American conservatism, and the lessons he's carried from each chapter of his career. It's a revealing and timely discussion with a man who has been at the crossroads of intelligence, law, and politics.

Drafting the Past is a show about the craft of writing history, hosted by historian and writer Kate Carpenter. In this episode, Kate is joined by historian Dr. Omar Valerio-Jiménez. Omar is a professor of history at the University of Texas at San Antonio, where he is also an associate dean for graduate studies. He originally worked as an engineer before going back to school to become a historian. His work focuses on histories of Mexican American civil rights, citizenship, education, and memory. His first book was called River of Hope: Forging Identity and Nation in the Rio Grande Borderlands, and his second book, which is the focus of this interview, is Remembering Conquest: Mexican Americans, Memory, and Citizenship. Remembering Conquest explores the collective memories of the U.S.-Mexico War and how those memories motivated civil rights campaigns among several generations of Mexican Americans. Omar is a pleasure to speak with, and his thoughtful approach to his work came through in our conversation. Keep an ear out especially for his work log system, which I might have to try out myself.

ORIGINALLY RELEASED Aug 29, 2022   The rallying cry of liberty, equality, and fraternity echoed through the streets of revolutionary France—and still reverberates through history. In this episode, we examine the French Revolution as a foundational rupture in world history, one that shattered the old feudal order and set the stage for modern capitalism, liberal democracy, and the revolutionary tradition from which subsequent socialist and communist movements would draw inspiration. From the class uprising of the sans-culottes to the radical egalitarian vision of the Jacobins, and from the fall of the monarchy to the rise of Napoleon, we follow the dialectical unfolding of hope and horror, progress and betrayal. What did the revolution achieve, where did it fall short, and what lessons can today's revolutionaries draw from the fire that consumed the Ancien Régime?   Stella joins Breht to discuss (and put a unique communist spin) on the great French Revolution!   Check out our Haitian Revolution episode HERE   Check out our Paris Commune episode HERE ---------------------------------------------------- Support Rev Left and get access to bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/revleftradio Make a one-time donation to Rev Left at BuyMeACoffee.com/revleftradio Follow, Subscribe, & Learn more about Rev Left Radio HERE Outro Beat Prod. by flip da hood

Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! In Part 5 of our 1975 retrospective series, we turn our focus to the Fall of Saigon—a pivotal moment in world history. The Fall of Saigon was a pivotal moment that brought the Vietnam War to a dramatic close and forever changed the course of history. Our guest, Colonel Albion Bergstrom (U.S. Army, Retired), brings a deeply personal and professional perspective to that chaotic spring of 1975. A veteran of the Vietnam War, Colonel Bergstrom shares his insights into the final days of the American presence in Saigon, the frantic evacuation, and the long shadows that moment cast on U.S. foreign policy, military strategy, and the lives of thousands of Vietnamese allies left behind. Colonel Bergstrom walks us through the atmosphere of the U.S. embassy, the sounds of the last helicopters lifting off, and the emotions felt by soldiers and civilians alike. Whether you're a student of history or someone seeking to understand how past conflicts continue to shape the present, this episode offers a compelling, human look at one of the most significant chapters in American military history. Listen in as we remember, reflect, and reckon with the legacy of the Fall of Saigon — fifty years later.

The long-awaited JFK files have finally been released, and one of the most revealing details isn't what's in them—but what the CIA wanted to keep hidden. Among the redactions in the report, one stands out: “The Israeli Intelligence Service.” Why was this information deemed too sensitive for public eyes, even after all these years? In this episode, I break down my initial reaction to the files, what this redaction could mean, and how it fits into the bigger picture of JFK's assassination, and American politics in general.—https://policecoffee.com/?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAACG7qmIkS3X8ivoZzZosZdSRJueTZ&gclid=Cj0KCQjw1um-BhDtARIsABjU5x6X9JVI5Dihvk6wiS1l5Ra9sToZWRHjj-F0vy3owqCssQ1Bpb0eGaQaAsF1EALw_wcB

Both Moses and God are popularly thought of as the opposite of grace as portrayed in the Old Testament. Exodus 34 tells the story of a God who does measure out justice to his creation, but magnifies his grace far beyond measure. The difference is that of the life-horizons of an individual contrasted with countless generations. Dr. K. Lawson Younger is Emeritus Professor of Old Testament and Semitic Languages at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. His publications include A Political History of the Arameans: From their Origins to the End of Their Polities, which won the Biblical Archaeology Society 2017 Publication Award for Best Scholarly Book on Archaeology, and Ancient Conquest Accounts: A Study in Ancient Near Eastern and Biblical History Writing.

Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! In this episode we dive into our 1975 series and turn our focus across the pond to the political rise of Margaret Thatcher. Before she became Britain's first female Prime Minister, Thatcher was a rising force in the Conservative Party, securing the party leadership in 1975 after a dramatic challenge to Edward Heath. We'll explore the political and economic climate that set the stage for her ascent, the key players who shaped her early career, and how her brand of conservatism began to take hold. What did her leadership victory mean for Britain and the world? And how did it foreshadow the sweeping changes she would later bring as Prime Minister? Join us as we dive into this pivotal moment in Thatcher's career and its lasting impact on global politics.

Breaking Away, Part 1: The Legislative Battle for Sandy Springs

Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! Today, we kick off Part 1 of our new mini-series, Breaking Away, exploring the municipalization of Sandy Springs. Joining us to discuss the legislative efforts behind the city's incorporation are former House Representative Wendell Willard and former Fulton County Commissioner Lynne Riley. Together, we take a deep dive into the behind-the-scenes work under the Gold Dome that made Sandy Springs a reality—an achievement that reshaped local governance in Georgia. For decades, residents of this northern Fulton County community fought for the right to govern themselves, facing resistance from county officials and state lawmakers. Their 30-year struggle, driven by issues of taxation, representation, and local control, ultimately led to a political showdown with lasting implications. In this episode, we'll examine the political battles, grassroots activism, and key figures who turned the dream of incorporation into reality in 2005. But Sandy Springs' story doesn't end there—its success sparked a wave of new city formations across metro Atlanta, reshaping the state's political and economic landscape. How did one community's determination change Georgia's approach to local governance? And what lessons can be learned from their experience? Join us as we unpack the history, controversy, and lasting impact of Sandy Springs' journey to cityhood in Breaking Away.

What do we get if we combine stories about a merchant, an exile, an activist, a pop star, a doctor, and a president together into one book? Dr. Niki J. P. Alsford, Professor of Asia Pacific studies and head of Asia Pacific Institutes at the University of Central Lancashire, did exactly that and more with his most recent book Taiwan Lives: A Social and Political History (University of Washington Press, 2024). In his book Niki J. P. Alsford explores Taiwan's historical journey from Japanese colonization in 1895 to its modern political and social developments under President Tsai Ing-wen. The book uniquely presents Taiwan's history through the narratives of 24 individuals, offering a diverse perspective on significant events, social transitions, and the island's evolving identity. This approach provides readers with a humanized and nuanced understanding of Taiwan's past and present, making the work both informative and engaging for those interested in Taiwanese history and its contemporary affairs. The episode is hosted by Assoc. Prof. Linas Didvalis from Vytautas Magnus University's Centre for Asian Studies. Learn more about your ad choices.

"Tear it down to build it back up." That's the motto of the transition team currently hunkered down at Mar-a-Lago. There have already been several unexpected and even shocking announcements, and the President's campaign vision is taking shape: Donald Trump wants people outside the Washington machine who are ready to tear everything down so something new and better can be built in its place. Charlie talks to new Israel ambassador Mike Huckabee, and also discusses the election of John Thune as Senate majority leader.Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/supportSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Back in the 1950s, America was very afraid of Soviet spies and communist sympathizers infiltrating the government and destroying the United States from within. And there were actual spies sharing secrets with the Soviets. But concern soon gave way to paranoia, and a political witch-hunt began, with a self-serving senator from Wisconsin leading a very misguided and ultimately anti-American and embarrassing Red Scare that destroyed the lives of many. If you are able to give extra support this holiday season, please consider supporting the annual Bad Magic Giving Tree by purchasing a digital amazon gift card and sending it to givingtree2024@badmagicproductions.comWe are accepting gift cards starting now through November 21st!Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?

They carried torches and marched at night. Their goal: defend free speech in America. What started as a small group of young men demonstrating during the 1860 election, snowballed into a mass movement of working-class Americans marching to end slavery. They called themselves the Wide Awakes. And they're widely seen as the political force that helped elect Abraham Lincoln and spur the Civil War. So why has their story gone untold? And why is now the time to tell it?  Guests: Jon Grinspan, Curator of Political History at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History. Author of Wide Awake: The Forgotten Force that Elected Lincoln and Spurred the Civil WarKevin Waite, Associate Professor of History at Durham University.
