  • George Washington: Republican & Democrat
    2024/07/31

    The reality of George Washington, the flesh and blood man who achieved the improbable against formidable odds is in many respects more interesting than the mythic legend that resulted in a 10-foot tall marble statue of Washington as Cincinnatus, the great hero of the ancient Roman Republic.

    Join me as we peel back the layers of mythology and lore to reveal the man as he existed in his time. Discover for yourself why Washington's final admonishing to all Americans to resist the influence of political parties stands as relevant today as it was in the closing years of the 18th Century.

    This is George Washingon: Republican & Democrat.

  • A Republic: If You Can Keep It
    2024/01/15

    Many people have begun to write the epitaph of the American Republic and this nation's grand experiment with self-government. 

    WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES...

    Two groups have come to dominate American politics as the first quarter mark of the 21st Century approaches: Personality-cult Conservatives and Neo-progressive Liberals. As the NeoProgs and PerCons battle to tear each other apart, a third group has emerged from the political and cultural shadows. While the roots of this groups members run deep into the very foundations of the republic, a new generation stands ready to assume the mantle of sober decision-making based on logic and reason.

    They are willing to listen and will sacrifice personal comfort for the good of their country.

    Download or stream this new episode to discover why a person who firmly believes in the republic and its great experiment in self-government has come to be known, quite simply, as an American Radical.

  • Anson Burlingame: American Radical
    2024/01/15

    As political passions boil over at the U.S. Capitol, a senator is violently attacked for trying to force his "liberal Massachussetts values" on "red" states in which residents have grown increasingly frustrated by the heavy-handed  intrusions of the federal government into their everyday affairs.

    In the wake of the attack in the senate, and at a moment in which it seems as if the whole thing may spin out of control and come crashing down to dust, one member of Congress decides to stand on principle (and a particular set of skills he developed over the course of a long career).

    Join us to find out what happens when righteous rage fueld by courage stands toe-to-toe against abhorrent anger spurred on by fear.

    Listen and discover exactly what it takes to be...AN AMERICAN RADICAL.
