Podcasts about Theodore Roosevelt

George Washington is perhaps the most familiar figure in American history. But most people really only know the image of him they see in marble statues and patriotic paintings. Behind those symbols was a real man: ambitious, self-taught, intensely concerned with honor, and constantly wrestling with the immense responsibilities history placed on his shoulders.In celebration of America's 250th birthday, we're taking an extended look at the life of the man more responsible than anyone else for the nation's founding. Here to unpack that life for us is H.W. Brands, a historian and the author of a new biography of Washington, American Patriarch. Brands traces Washington's journey from a young Virginia surveyor to military commander, founding father, and first president. Along the way, we discuss how Washington's upbringing shaped his character, why he became a surprisingly effective military leader despite losing more battles than he won, how he held together a fragile revolutionary army, how he shaped the presidency through the precedents he set, and whether a leader like Washington could still succeed today.Resources Related to the PodcastH.W.'s previous appearances on the AoM podcast:Episode #696: Theodore Roosevelt, The Last RomanticEpisode #908: Would You Have Been a Patriot or a Loyalist?AoM Podcast #223: George Washington, Benedict Arnold, and Valiant AmbitionAoM Podcast #366: Teach Yourself Like George WashingtonAoM Podcast #719: The Surprising Pessimism of America's Founding FathersAoM Article: George Washington's Rules of Civility and Decent Behavior in Company and ConversationConnect With H.W.

Episode 4162 │ June 28, 2026 Paine arrived broke and nearly dead. He wrote the pamphlet that made independence inevitable. Six people attended his funeral. History owes him more. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS  Scott Kesterson and Rochelle Porto deliver the full Thomas Paine episode — tracing the arc from a destitute English stay-maker's son beaten up by wealthy children in Thetford, through bankruptcy, a dead wife and child, a chance meeting with Benjamin Franklin, a near-fatal nine-week sea crossing, and a recovery in a Philadelphia doctor's quarters, to the January 1776 publication of Common Sense — a 47-page pamphlet that reached 40% of the colonial population, shifted the psychological default from reconciliation to independence before Congress had the courage to declare it, prompted North Carolina to become the first colony to authorize its delegates to vote for independence, and was ordered read aloud to Continental Army troops before the crossing of the Delaware. Rochelle traces Paine's documented record — the first anti-slavery essay in American history, the Pennsylvania Abolition Act of 1780 drafted in part by Paine, his $500 personal contribution to a collapsing Continental Army, the diplomatic mission to France that secured 2.5 million livres in silver — against the arc of a man whose bones are now lost, whose burial was refused by the Quakers, whose funeral drew six people, and who was denied the right to vote in the country he helped create. The episode closes with a reading of 1 Samuel 8 — the passage at the theological root of Common Sense's argument against kings — as both historical anchor and present-day mirror. KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED  What made Common Sense the proportionally most widely read political document in American history — and how did a 47-page pamphlet written by a man with no official standing shift the entire colonial psychological default from reconciliation to independence in less than four months? Why did Theodore Roosevelt call Paine "the little atheist" — and what does Paine's actual engagement with Psalm 19, the book of Job, and 1 Samuel 8 reveal about where he actually stood on God, monarchy, and the republic? What is the 1 Samuel 8 passage at the theological root of Common Sense — and why does the warning God gave Israel about kings read today like a precise description of the permission structure being built around us?

Episode 4159 │ Date June 26, 2026 Paine wrote from collapse. Washington drilled in frozen mud. The Son Tay raiders rescued no one — and saved everyone. Nine men. One pattern. Vincit. WHAT THIS EPISODE COVERS  Time to introduce Vincit — BardsFM's new short-form daily series built on a single doctrinal standard: Vincit qui patitur, he conquers who endures. Scott Kesterson walks through nine stories, nine moments where endurance was the only weapon that mattered — Thomas Paine writing Common Sense from personal collapse, Washington drilling a dissolving army in frozen mud at Valley Forge, Lewis and Clark holding an impossible expedition together through sheer refusal to quit, Theodore Roosevelt disappearing into the Dakota Badlands after losing his wife and mother on the same day and coming back, Alvin York wrestling his faith into action and capturing 132 prisoners with squirrel-hunting marksmanship, the First Marine Division holding Henderson Field at Guadalcanal on captured Japanese rice, Patton winning the battle as a ghost before he ever was allowed to return the field, fifty-six Special Forces operators flying into the most defended airspace in history at Son Tay to rescue POWs who weren't there — and saving them anyway — and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. still walking toward something with a damaged voice and a target on his name. One pattern runs through all nine: endurance is not the absence of suffering, it is what suffering forges when you refuse to leave the field. KEY QUESTIONS ADDRESSED What is the doctrine of Vincit qui patitur — and why does the pattern of endurance run identically through a Revolutionary pamphleteer, a frozen Continental Army, a failed POW rescue mission, and a man with a neurological voice condition still walking toward something? What is the difference between news and pattern recognition, between reaction and discernment — and why does Vincit operate at that intersection rather than the breaking news cycle? What did the Son Tay Raiders — who rescued no one — actually accomplish, and why did the POWs in the Hanoi Hilton later testify it was the turning point in their psychological survival?

Host Pete Deeley welcomes listeners back to The Jiu-Jitsu Mindset, promotes subscription coffee and announces the new app "My Jiu-Jitsu Journey," then interviews Sensei George Rego about his lifelong martial arts path. Rego describes walking into an old, gritty dojo as a child and feeling instantly "at home," drawn to the combination of real physical capability and character, honor, and discipline—echoing Miyamoto Musashi's "twofold way" of sword and pen. He discusses the unique trust of training, the deep teacher-student bond, and the grief of losing his sensei. Rego shares lessons on discipline becoming self-discipline, navigating students who disappear, and his motivation for writing "The Founding of Jujutsu and Judo in America," including Teddy Roosevelt's ju jitsu connections. He concludes that a strong martial artist should be difficult to harm but easy to respect.   00:00 Welcome and Updates 01:05 Meet Sensei George Rego 02:01 Why Martial Arts 03:25 First Dojo Awakening 05:54 Quiet Strength Ideal 09:14 Twofold Way Mindset 13:21 Loss of a Sensei 15:02 Teacher Student Bond 19:08 Trust and Time on Mat 22:18 Students Who Disappear 23:44 Refocus on Students 25:07 Sensei Beyond Fighting 27:13 Systems and Discipline 29:14 Gravitas of a Master 31:05 Why Write the Book 33:53 Research and Roosevelt Dojo 35:05 Preserving Hidden Lineages 36:22 Where to Find the Book 36:57 Audiobook and Bestseller Run 38:33 Hard to Harm Easy Respect

Stewart Alsop hosts a conversation with Oliver Polzin, a founding team member of Meow Wolf and naturalist, exploring the intersection of creativity, conservation, and architecture. Oliver discusses his current postgraduate work at SCI-Arc in Los Angeles studying synthetic landscapes through an architectural lens, his deep fascination with Pleistocene megafauna and the La Brea Tar Pits, and his vision for creating a "biophilic culture" that reframes humanity's relationship with other species and ecosystems. The discussion ranges from Oliver's early work building mud caves at Meow Wolf to his current explorations of AI-assisted design tools, 3D printing with recycled materials, holistic grazing management systems for the Great Plains, and the ancient Amazonian practice of creating terra preta soil—all part of his broader investigation into how we can design interventions for climate and conservation issues while maintaining what makes us fundamentally human.Timestamps00:00 Stewart introduces Oliver Polzin from Meow Wolf's founding team and discusses how his yoga teaching there inspired the podcast's exploration of creativity and stress relationships.05:00 Oliver describes his architecture graduate program studying climate and conservation through synthetic landscapes, contrasting dark green naturalist ecology with bright green capitalist environmentalism.10:00 Discussion of conservation ethics and AI's potential for monitoring environmental systems, with Oliver explaining his journey from painting to experimental mud construction at early Meow Wolf.15:00 Stewart shares his robotics learning journey with ESP32s in Buenos Aires while Oliver questions humanoid robot design, suggesting functional form factors matter more than human resemblance.20:00 Oliver explores cardboard as material obsession and explains treasure hunt mechanics in Meow Wolf exhibits, creating dopamine-driven discovery experiences through layered storytelling.25:00 Stewart describes creating treasure hunts for Spanish learners in Buenos Aires parks while Oliver validates experiential art's growing importance in an increasingly digital culture.30:00 Conversation shifts to three-d printing flexible filaments for architectural models and Oliver's megafauna book project about La Brea Tar Pits Pleistocene fossils.35:00 Oliver connects Earth consciousness to Pale Blue Dot perspective, arguing humans face developmental threshold understanding planetary responsibility after 300,000 years as anatomically modern species.40:00 Deep dive into end-Pleistocene extinction events and megafauna loss, discussing two-ton capybaras and how predator relationships shaped human psychology and anxiety responses.45:00 Oliver presents speculative Great Plains biopreserve concept with de-extinct megafauna, contrasting holistic rotational grazing with destructive monoculture agriculture systems.50:00 Discussion concludes with Amazonian dark earth technology and indigenous landscape management, emphasizing need for biophilic culture embracing deep time ecological perspective.Key Insights1. Oliver Polzin is part of the founding team of Meow Wolf and is currently studying at SCI-Arc in Downtown LA in a postgraduate program called Synthetic Landscapes, which examines global scale climate and conservation issues through an architectural lens. Architecture exists between art and science, and he believes architectural thinking offers a valuable framework for designing interventions for climate and conservation challenges. This program represents a significant evolution from his earlier work at Meow Wolf, where he created immersive experiential art installations using materials like adobe and cardboard.2. There is an important distinction in ecological thought between what Paul Kingsnorth calls dark green and light green approaches to environmentalism. The dark green strain represents the older naturalist movement from the early twentieth century, focusing on biological systems, ecosystems, and endangered species. Light green emerged in the 1970s after the Earth Day movement and centers on clean energy, solar panels, and wind power as a way to maintain our current lifestyle. Oliver argues that the bright green approach represents a capitalist overlay that has captured the conservation movement, whereas true conservation requires focusing on actual biological systems rather than just technological solutions.3. The experiential art form that Meow Wolf pioneered still has enormous untapped potential, particularly as society becomes increasingly digital. Oliver believes there will be a huge wave of experiential desire in this decade as people crave human connection and real-world excitement. The treasure hunt and scavenger hunt format represents a compelling form of real-life RPG that creates meaningful human interactions. This type of experience design, which Meow Wolf developed through installations like the House of Eternal Return, plays with human dopamine systems by compelling people to open doors, explore spaces, and follow narrative threads through physical environments.4. The architectural model or dollhouse concept represents a crucial rhetorical tool that Oliver is learning to apply to climate and conservation work. Architects have long created physical models to show stakeholders what a building will be like, and this practice of showing a story in compelling ways for different types of brains is essential for getting traction on projects. While architectural models used to be made from foam core, paper, and balsa wood, they are now largely created through 3D printing, which allows for incredibly complex forms and interlocking structures that would have been impossible to construct manually.5. Oliver is obsessed with megafauna and the end Pleistocene extinction event that occurred roughly twelve thousand years ago. For three hundred thousand years, anatomically modern humans existed alongside massive beasts like short faced bears and American lions, and we were the smaller creatures in the ecosystem. The extinction of over one hundred genera of animals over ninety nine pounds, combined with sea level rise of nearly four hundred feet, fundamentally changed human existence and led to the development of agriculture and civilization. Much of our current psychological development, including anxiety responses, is still based on this time period when we lived among these massive animals.6. The current food system in the Great Plains is fundamentally broken compared to the historical managed food system maintained by Plains tribes, who sustained thirty to sixty million bison through 1800. Oliver explored a speculative project about turning the Great Plains into a massive biopreserve of de-extinct megafauna, contrasting the natural system of rotational grazing where predators keep herds moving with the current monoculture crop agriculture that requires external inputs like fertilizer, pesticides, and herbicides. The natural system builds soil and increases fecundity, while industrial agriculture degrades soil, creates toxic runoff, and produces genetically modified crops that feed animals in toxic concentrated feeding operations.7. The fundamental challenge facing humanity now is creating what Oliver calls a biophilic or ecophilic culture that is loving of other species and our home planet. This requires both psychological shifts and changes in how we design systems at all scales. The Amazon provides a powerful example of this, as recent LiDAR mapping has revealed that what appeared to be pristine wilderness was actually a vast tended garden created by indigenous civilizations who developed technologies like Amazonian dark earth through burning middens with various additives. These cultures understood how to be embedded in a web with other species while playing an important orchestrating role, offering a model for how humans might relate to other forms of life in our current era.

Execution vs process. *Execution: 1) Skill Set Distribution ("Three is too few, five too many."), 2) Relevance of that skill set distribution to the situation at hand, and 3) Willingness to engage with the management team between board meetings ("the most important" goes to board culture). (38:34) Building the Board Agenda, from Tony: Tight agenda in three buckets: 1) Decisions needed now, 2) input without a decision, and 3) FYI. Most boards get stuck on FYI and never reach the real decisions.

What happens when a place your people have prayed at for a thousand years becomes a uranium mining site? And what can one voice actually do to stop it? Sumaya Quitugua, a young woman from the Acoma Pueblo in New Mexico and Chamorro from Guam, grew up at the Sky City, in traditional adobe homes on top of a mesa, where her grandfather taught her that we don't own the land or the water. We protect them.  In this episode, Sumaya breaks down the fight for Chaco Canyon, a place protected by President Theodore Roosevelt over a century ago and named a UNESCO World Heritage Site, now targeted for uranium mining right up against its borders. She explains what's really at stake, what mining does to land and water that can never be undone, and how a seven-day public comment window turned into a hundred and fifty days because people refused to stay silent. This is for anyone who's ever wondered whether speaking up actually changes anything, and anyone who wants to understand sacred land from the people who carry it.   What You'll Discover: What actually makes a place sacred, and why it's a feeling, not a spot on a map Why the "buffer zone" around Chaco matters as much as the site itself What uranium mining really does to water, air, and the people who live there How seven days of public comment became a hundred and fifty How to visit a sacred site with respect, including what to do and what to say Why choosing not to learn is choosing to be part of the problem   Resources: Follow Sumaya Quitugua on Instagram Learn about the threat to Chaco Culture National Historical Park (NPCA) Discover Chaco Canyon's dark skies, stargazing, and archaeology (National Geographic)

“Age is the modality in which class is lived in America today.” — Samuel Moyn Yesterday we had 91-year-old Mordecai Kurz on the show. Tomorrow, it will be 84-year-old Sally Quinn. But today's guest, the Yale legal historian Samuel Moyn, has a bit of a problem with old people. His new book, Gerontocracy in America, argues that the old folks are hoarding power and wealth in America. For Moyn, Dylan's Sixties anthem of “Forever Young” has soured into today's reality of “Forever Old.” In some ways, it's hard to argue with Moyn's thesis. Donald Trump is the oldest elected US president in history. Congress has been ageing for decades — and several Democratic members died in the run-up to the One Big Beautiful Bill vote, thereby facilitating its passage. The progressive heroine Ruth Bader Ginsburg stayed on the Supreme Court through a pancreatic cancer diagnosis and died in office, handing the right a supermajority and the end of abortion rights. Clarence Thomas, the RBG of nutcase conservatism, is on track to become the longest-serving Supreme Court justice in US history. And then there's that alte kaker Joe Biden, former dodder-in-chief, the only pol who gives Trump a youthful glow. Even Bob Dylan — who I saw in all his morbid brilliance in Berkeley last week (“but me, I'm still on the road”) — just celebrated his 85th birthday. Forever old, America. Happy 250th. Five Takeaways •       What Is Gerontocracy? Not a Problem With Old People: Moyn is careful to distinguish gerontocracy from old people. He is in his mid-fifties and can't attack old people generally. His target is the system: the structural overrepresentation of old people in power, and the structural disadvantaging of the young that results. Old people can be great. Some are, some aren't — just like everyone else. The problem is that when we defer to old people automatically — as a system rather than as a judgement about individuals — we replicate their mistakes alongside their wisdom. And cognitive decline is real, as Biden proved. “Age is the modality in which class is lived in America today,” Moyn writes, riffing on Stuart Hall's formulation about race. •       The Congress, the Courts, and the Deaths That Passed the Bill: Trump is the oldest elected US president in history — and if JD Vance were to succeed him, Vance would be the youngest president since Teddy Roosevelt. But Moyn's focus goes beyond the presidency. Congress has aged dramatically: the average senator and representative are significantly older than at any point in US history, and there is now only one member of Congress in their thirties. Several Democratic members of the House died in the months before the One Big Beautiful Bill vote, facilitating its passage. The gerontocracy is quite literally voting itself into power through death. •       The RBG Problem: Selfishness and the Supreme Court: Moyn's account of Ruth Bader Ginsburg is unsparing. She had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer — one of the deadliest — and allegedly survived it. She had become a progressive icon, “Notorious RBG.” But she chose to stay on the court rather than retire under Obama, and she died in office in 2020, allowing Trump to appoint Amy Coney Barrett and hand the right a supermajority that ended abortion rights. Moyn's verdict: she was selfish. He is also careful to note that the system should not depend on individual virtue — there will always be selfish people. The system must be reformed so that selfish choices are no longer possible. •       The Framers Designed Gerontocracy Into the Constitution: One of Moyn's most striking historical arguments: the framers deliberately empowered old people. The age minimums for federal office (35 for the presidency, 30 for the Senate) excluded 70% of the population at the time. The Senate was named after the Roman senatus — literally “old men” — and the concept went back to the Spartan council of elders. Alexander Hamilton argued in the Federalist Papers that federal judges should serve until they were “dodering” because the alternative was too much popular power. The gerontocracy is not an accident. It was designed. •       The Solutions: Vote at Six, Retire at Sixty, Tax the Family Home: Moyn's solutions are deliberately radical. On voting: lower the age, as David Runciman advocates to six, and reduce the number of elections because evidence shows the more elections, the greater the elder dominance. On political office: age limits, youth cohorts. On the courts: mandatory retirement — this requires creative interpretation of the constitution rather than amendment. On the economy: higher taxes on inherited wealth and housing assets — an incremental tax for staying in a large house you no longer need. On the title of the paperback: Andrew suggests “Forever Old.” Moyn will credit him if it's chosen. About the Guest Samuel Moyn is the Kent Professor of Law and History at Yale University.

In this solo episode, I share five books that fundamentally shaped my understanding of conservation, public lands, water, ranching, and the American West. These are the books that helped transform me from a ranch broker with a growing curiosity about conservation into someone who eventually devoted much of his career – and this podcast – to exploring the people and ideas shaping the landscapes of the West. Along the way, I discuss Theodore Roosevelt, wildfire policy, regenerative grazing, Western water, and the history of conservation, while highlighting conversations from the Mountain & Prairie archive that connect to each book. Whether you're new to these topics or looking to deepen your understanding on anything from water to ranching to history, these books provide an excellent foundation. Enjoy!!

What does it really mean to be strong and courageous? In this episode of Youth Worker On Fire, Doug Edwards shares a powerful message about Christian courage, kindness, confidence, generosity, and leadership. Through stories from Theodore Roosevelt, Bear Grylls, Michelle Monaghan, Tony Robbins, and personal moments from his own life, Doug points us back to a biblical truth: God calls His people to stand strong, speak truth, care deeply, and trust Him with the outcome. This episode explores how simple actions can shape the people around us, offering a genuine compliment, showing respect, giving generously, staying content, standing up for others, and choosing courage even when fear is present. Doug also reflects on Joshua 1:9 and Jeremiah's calling, reminding us that God does not call us to live timid, passive lives. He puts His words in our mouths, gives us His strength, and sets us apart for good works prepared in advance. In this episode, you'll be encouraged to: • Be strong and courageous in your calling • Use your words to build people up • Practice sincere kindness and encouragement • Lead with humility, confidence, and faith • Give generously even when it feels costly • Learn contentment in the place God has you • Fight fairly for what is right without losing grace Whether you are a youth pastor, student ministry volunteer, parent, grandparent, Christian educator, or leader investing in the next generation, this episode will challenge you to become someone others can trust, follow, and depend on. God may have set you apart to encourage the overlooked, stand up for the average person, speak life into students, and lead with strength that comes from Him. Be strong. Be courageous. Be kind. _________________________________________________________________________________

Love, PlowGuyDave Question from Rob K from Connecticut Rob K From ConnecticutDear WLS Hey guys it's Rob again! I finally got my approval paperwork on my Aero M5 in my state after having to register it. Since it will probably be my only AR-10 I'll ever own unless I move I'm looking for ideas on a final build for it. I'm very similar to Nick where I don't want to switch around uppers on my lower. If you guys could only build one AR-10 how would each of you do it? Caliber? Barrel length? Optic? Max range I have access to is 200 yards. I'm open to anything on my final build including switching to 6.5 Creedmoor. It's currently set up with a 18inch Aero upper in 308 with a swampfox 5-25×56 FFP Warhawk. Before Jeremey comments I know the scope is massive for that rifle and range I have. I got a crazy deal on it and couldn't say no but realized it's not ment for my setup. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Bonus question! What bolt rifle would you throw that Warhawk on always down to buy another rifle for the collection. Many thanks guys!!! #WLS is life!!!

From Devils Tower in northwestern Wyoming, Host David Horton and Clay Jenkinson discuss Theodore Roosevelt's conservation achievements. When the National Monuments and Antiquities Act was passed in 1906, President Roosevelt lost no time in setting aside what would become 18 National Monuments, starting with Devils Tower just west of the Black Hills. Roosevelt had little to do with the creation of the Antiquities Act, but he made the most of it, culminating in his colossal designation of Grand Canyon National Monument in 1908. In the course of his two-term presidency, Roosevelt set aside a whopping 230 million acres of National Park, National Forest, National Monument, National Wildlife Refuge, and National Game Preserve. No president has done more. David asked Clay to outline his three-phase Roosevelt conservation tour for 2026. First, South Dakota, Wyoming, and Colorado; later, Montana and Idaho; and in the fall, all of Roosevelt's conservation designations in the Four Corners region of the Southwest.

A coaching client this week was grinding four hours a night, sitting on six ASINs he'd already vetted, and still couldn't pull the trigger. His words: "There's gotta be something I'm missing here." He wasn't missing a tool. He was missing permission to act.   In this episode, Brian and Robin Joy take you inside an actual coaching call where Robin turned three "pass on it" ASINs into two she'd test in real time. The fix wasn't a new filter or a secret tactic. It was learning to read the right number instead of the one every calculator shoves to the front page.   Why the current buy box, the price you can buy it at right now, never once entered Robin's decision. Why a $1.79 product that nets 50 cents isn't too small, it's 28% ROI and the cheapest belief-builder you'll ever buy. Why you should start your price at the highest evidence you have and let the test, not the other sellers, tell you what it's worth. And what Robin hunts for on every red ASIN that most people close the tab on.   The client said it himself: "I have to get out of my own head." Teddy Roosevelt said it better. In any moment of decision, the worst thing you can do is nothing.   You didn't fail to find five ASINs. You just kept disqualifying products for failing a test you never ran. Let's go test more ASINs.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "Can Jeff help me with trademarks and LLC eastablishment?"

In 250 jaar jaar telden de Verenigde Staten van Amerika 47 presidenten. Wie waren zij? Hoe deden ze het, als staatshoofd en als politiek leider? Wie van hen zetten écht de toon? En hoe kijken wij nu naar mensen als Abraham Lincoln, Harry Truman, Richard Nixon en Donald Trump? Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger praten hierover met professor Michael Nelson van Rhodes College in Memphis, eminent kenner, auteur en samensteller van reeksen boeken over het ambt, de impact en het leven van presidenten. *** This is a Dutch podcast, but from minute 6 on, the conversation is in English. Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken. Word ook vriend van de show! Heb je belangstelling om in onze podcast te adverteren of ons te sponsoren? Zend ons een mailtje en wij zoeken contact. *** 'President' was met de komt van de Amerikaanse Grondwet in 1787 een bestuurlijke vondst en politiek experiment. Deze functie bestond nog nergens. Hoe deze in te vullen, wist eigenlijk niemand. Michael Nelson schetst kleurrijk hoe George Washington dit allemaal zelf moest uitvinden en hoe hij wonderlijk goed erin slaagde die rol ook voor zijn opvolgers inhoud, richting en stijl te geven. Na hem zouden anderen deze functie verder kleur geven. Andrew Jackson (1829-1837) ging met veto's in tegen het Congres, als anti-elite politicus. Teddy Roosevelt (1901 - 1909) was de man die als moderne populist nieuwe media als magazines en zelfs film ging inzetten. Zijn neef Franklin Roosevelt (1933 - 1945) professionaliseerde het Witte Huis als zijn persoonlijke apparaat en machtscentrum, zelfs op wereldschaal. Elke president nadien is zo hun opvolger. Nelson relativeert hoe 'zwaar' de baan van de president is. Het Witte Huis levert immers een gedegen machinerie die de bewoner bijna alles uit handen kan nemen. Wel zie je dat presidenten er soms vereenzamen, opgesloten raken in hun stress en daardoor ongelukkig en stuurloos worden. De baan laat het karakter van een president heel zichtbaar worden. "President worden, onthult wie je echt bent," zegt Nelson. Zo bleek de eenvoudige Harry Truman ongedachte kwaliteiten van leiderschap en daadkracht te hebben, terwijl Richard Nixon zeker een briljant politicus was, maar in de greep raakte van zijn demonen. Donald Trump is volgens Nelson een fundamentele breuk: hij voelt niet aan wat de rol van staatshoofd betekent. Kenmerkend noemt hij hoe Trump '250 jaar VS’ viert. Niet het ideaal van ‘leven, vrijheid en het nastreven van geluk' staat centraal, maar zijn persoonlijk hobbyisme. "Hij wil bij leven nog overal zijn naam op de gevels gedrukt zien." De historische dynamiek en de vaste waarden in het ambt van president hebben grote invloed op ons oordeel over hoe die 47 heren hun rol als politiek leider en staatshoofd invulden. We kijken meestal terug vanuit de politieke normen van onze eigen tijd. Daardoor daalt en stijgt de reputatie van verschillende van hen soms verrassend. Presidenten als Ulysses Grant, Harry Truman en Dwight Eisenhower bijvoorbeeld, werden pas later veel meer gewaardeerd. Wat Nelson betreft staan eigenlijk alleen de drie min of meer permanent hoogst beoordeelden op een vast voetstuk. "Washington, Lincoln en Franklin Roosevelt blijven het rolmodel. Zij moesten alle drie het ambt in ongekende omstandigheden bekleden en dat deden ze briljant. En ja, ze stierven meteen, dat hielp hun reputatie ook wel." Michael Nelson heeft voor de luisteraars nog een reeks niet te missen tips. Bij welke bibliotheek van welke president moet je echt gaan kijken? Welke biografie van welke president niet overslaan? Maar ook: wie wil Trump echt als zijn opvolger kronen en waarom niét JD Vance? Maar wat doet Frank Sinatra in deze aflevering? *** Verder lezen Het boek dat het beste aansluit bij deze aflevering is The American Presidency: Origins and Development, 1776-2025. Op Amazon zijn heel veel titels van Michael Nelson te vinden. *** Verder luisteren 473 - John Quincy Adams president 475 – Trumps rolmodel Andrew Jackson 481 - Donald Trumps nieuwe idool William McKinley, ‘de tarievenkoning’ 319 - Lyndon B.

America's wildlife comeback story began with hunters recognizing conservation before the rest of the nation. America's conservation system didn't begin in Washington. It started with hunters, anglers, and outdoorsmen recognizing that wildlife populations and wild places were disappearing across the continent. In this conversation, the Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation launches the Hunt Fish 250 campaign with a deep dive into the origins of the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation, the public trust doctrine, and the sporting traditions that shaped the nation itself. Simon Roosevelt and James Cummins trace the roots of hunting and fishing from Native American land stewardship and subsistence living to Theodore Roosevelt, the Boone and Crockett Club, and the early conservation movement that saved species like whitetail deer, bison, and wild turkey from collapse. The discussion explores how fair chase hunting, habitat management, public lands conservation, and wildlife science became foundational American values. Listeners will also hear how landmark legislation like the Lacey Act, Pittman-Robertson Act, Migratory Bird Treaty Act, and Sport Fish Restoration Act transformed modern wildlife management and conservation funding. This is a conversation about more than hunting rights or fishing access. It's about why hunters and anglers remain central to protecting wildlife habitat, managing forests and wetlands, funding conservation, and ensuring future generations can experience the outdoors the same way Americans have for centuries.   Follow the show for more weekly hunting, fishing, and conservation policy conversations.   Get the FREE Sportsmen's Voice e-publication in your inbox every Monday: ⁠www.congressionalsportsmen.org/newsletter⁠  Learn more about your ad choices.

Today's funny podcast is basically what happens when sleep deprivation, trivia questions, and pesto sauce collide headfirst at 70 MPH.The gang kicks things off talking about The Boys, confusing CGI timelines, and whether anybody actually understands what's happening anymore in prestige television. Rafe is emotionally spiraling over loose plot threads, Moon checked out seasons ago, and somehow the conversation becomes less coherent from there. Which honestly feels impressive.Then it's time for another chaotic round of Match Up With The Morons — the game where confidence matters way more than intelligence. Moon and Learn square off in a trivia battle featuring fireworks origins, Roman numerals, and the single most dramatic pesto-related answer reveal in modern broadcasting history. There's also an alarming amount of discussion about the attractiveness of the green M&M. Which… yeah. That tracks for this show.Highlights include:Moon accidentally stumbling into the correct pesto answer like a drunk raccoon finding a winning lottery ticketLearn reverse-engineering Roman numerals in real time while actively losing her sanityAn unexpectedly passionate debate over the rarest M&M colorRafe emotionally describing Japanese math-rock like he's reviewing perfume commercialsKing Scott confidently remembering the year Coca-Cola launched as if he personally attended the ribbon cuttingAnd just when everyone thinks the show can't possibly derail harder, somebody on the text line claims Oklahoma borders Mexico. At which point the entire room briefly experiences collective brain failure.This episode of the funny podcast has everything:CGI confusion. Toe jams. Sexy sangria commentary. Mount Rushmore debates. Teddy Roosevelt “in the crevice.” Babushka lore. And enough incorrect geography to get the entire show banned from a middle school classroom.Honestly, this might be one of the most accidentally educational episodes we've ever done. Assuming your education was delivered by raccoons fighting behind a Waffle House dumpster.If you love a funny podcast full of sarcastic chaos, weird news energy, pop culture confusion, and friends aggressively roasting each other for nearly three hours straight, congratulations — you found your people.

American Grit Season 1: In this episode, Dale Partridge challenges you to rethink what it truly means to be American. Drawing from the Bible's clear categories for Israel—native-born, sojourner, foreigner, and outsider—he explains why heritage Americans, rooted in our Western European Christian founding stock, must receive priority in our nation. America was not established as a generic proposition nation, but as a distinct people formed for their own posterity. Dale makes the case that immigration without genuine assimilation is invasion. He defines true assimilation as adopting our language, culture, and Christian values—and ultimately intermarrying with the historic American people over generations. He rejects hyphenated Americanism and, quoting Theodore Roosevelt, calls for complete national unity. Christian nationalism, he argues, must be truly nationalist, not a Christian version of multiculturalism. You will also hear Dale address how multiculturalism creates inevitable conflict, along with honest discussions on geography, skin color, and IQ. The episode closes with the weekly audit, covering Muslim issues in Europe, the urgent need for an organized Christian coalition, and revealing church polls on Israel, feminism, immigration, and race.

Newt talks with Bret Baier, Chief Political Anchor of Fox News Channel and the anchor and executive editor of Special Report with Bret Baier, about his new book, “The Case for America: An Argument on Behalf of Our Nation.” Baier makes the case that the United States remains resilient and exceptional despite its flaws. He draws heavily on six presidents, George Washington, Ulysses S. Grant, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower, and Ronald Reagan, to describe American resilience, leadership, and optimism. He argues that the Declaration of Independence was a courageous, high-risk act that defined the nation’s core truths: choosing unity despite dissent, serving as a beacon of freedom, demonstrating a unique capacity for resilience, and remaining a land of opportunity. Their discussion extends to the founders’ disagreements, the risk they faced in signing the Declaration, and the evolution of American political rivalry and reconciliation, exemplified by the bitter split and later warm correspondence between John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. Turning to contemporary politics, Baier contends that the upcoming America 250th celebration offers a chance to rebuild shared civic affection across ideological lines by acknowledging both the country’s problems and its strengths.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
