#38 Who Are You?

This episode dives into the unexpected presidency of Gerald Ford, the only president never elected as either president or vice president. From his humble beginnings and years in Congress to stepping into office after the resignation of Richard Nixon, this episode explores the challenge of leading a divided nation during one of America’s most uncertain moments. We unpack Ford’s controversial pardon of Nixon, his efforts to restore trust in government, and the difficult economic struggles facing the country. Through strengths, setbacks, and a presidency shaped by healing, this episode asks whether Gerald Ford deserves more credit in American history than he often receives. Presidents Unplugged has merch!

#32 Fear Itself: The Franklin Roosevelt Story

Franklin D. Roosevelt faced fear at every stage of his life, from personal hardship to national crisis. Beginning in the depths of the Great Depression, we explore how Roosevelt challenged a nation paralyzed by uncertainty and rebuilt confidence through bold action and strong leadership. From his battle with polio to the sweeping reforms of the New Deal and the trials of World War II, the episode highlights how fear can either divide or unite a country. At its core, it’s a story about resilience, showing that true leadership isn’t about eliminating fear, but rising above it. Presidents Unplugged has merch!

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
