Landslide
NPRIn the mid-1970s, the Republican Party looked on the verge of self-destruction. Until 1976. A political earthquake: A cutthroat, razor-close, deeply personal battle for the Republican nomination, and the party's identity. It resurrected the GOP, remade it as a conservative party, and pulled the country sharply to the right. Landslide is the story of the closest presidential primary race in America... more

United States4 months ago - A Must-Listen!
When we look around at the news today, we try to figure out how we could have possibly gotten here.
Landslide shows you the way, based on historical facts and evidence. I lived through all of this, have always been a Politics/history junkie and it was still eyeopening. Connects all the dots, from Richard Nixon to the current cluster.
Apple Podcasts5Jt20037United States5 months ago - Fair yet somehow opportunistic
This is a thoroughly researched podcast, but one can never, ever escape the creators’ anti-Reagan and anti-Republican bias. For example, in episode one, the narrator breezily claims that Nixon had the IRS to target his opponents. Actually, Nixon never did that. He considered it, but didn’t go through with it. Barack Obama is the first president to sic the IRS on the American people for political reasons. There is also a grasping attempt to link the events of 40 to 50 years ago to those in the Tr... more
Apple Podcasts4PpfgghgUnited States6 months ago - Recent history informs our present
This series explains so much of how we arrived at our current political situation. It covers the time of the 70-80s, politics which were too recent to be covered in my schooling as history, but too old for me to have been alive to experience. This gap in my education really astonished me to learn about. The stories are incredible, and it’s amazing how quickly history repeats itself in some ways.

This is really good but it has a strong slant against conservative thought and as such not fair. It would have been better if it was more neutral.
