Revolution Road: Jefferson’s Two Presidencies with Historian Geoff Smock | Road Gang Radio

Jimmy Mac sits down with historian Geoff Smock for a clear look at Thomas Jefferson’s two terms as president. Geoff explains how Jefferson’s first term set one tone, then breaks down how the Embargo Act in his second term showed a different side of his leadership. You hear how these choices shaped the country and what they reveal about Jefferson’s character. Geoff also talks about his work with the Journal of the American Revolution and his day job teaching middle school social studies in Everett, Washington.

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.
