john adams

She was a wife, mother, confidant, and a social and political advisor during one of the most tumultuous periods of American history. Despite never being elected to an office, in recognition of her power of influence and sagacity her portrait now hangs permanently in the Senate Chamber of the Massachusetts General Court. Few women in the period of the American Revolution and early Republic left behind such a voluminous correspondence as Abigail Adams. As her husband John got further involved in the cause of American independence and sovereignty, Abigail's circle of friends and admirers grew in like proportion, eventually leading her from Weymouth, Massachusetts to the great courts of Europe.   We talk with  John L. Smith, Jr., , author of The Unexpected Abigail  Adams:  A Woman not Apt to be Intimidated. 

Not the Headlines talks about fruit sensors and covid policy.  In Let's go Back, we'll hear about old and new slavery in America, transfer of power, and music formats.  Author Guy Morris joins me for a conversation about artificial intelligence.  The Listening Tube will return March 24th.

Josiah Quincy, known as "Josiah the Patriot" was one of the brilliant lights of the Revolutionary cause in Boston.  He came from a well-known and well-respected family and as a young lawyer he worked with John Adams to defend Captain Thomas Preston in his trial for murder stemming from the Boston Massacre.  Learn more about this impressive young man who died in 1775, depriving a soon-to-be independent America of his passion for liberty and the rights of man.  Janet Uhlar, author of  Liberty's Martyr, a biography of Joseph Warren, and Freedom's Cost:  The Story of Nathanael Greene, talks with us about the brief but brilliant life of Josiah Quincy, Jr. 

John Hancock, the most famous signer of the Declaration of Independence, was a man of contradictions.  He was a man born into privilege, and yet he became one of the most passionate voices for the rights of the common man. He was a wealthy man of business, but longed for military glory.  We talk with Brooke Barbier, author of King Hancock:  The Radicat Influence of a Moderate Founder, about this enigmatic figure we think we know so well.  Brooke Barbier is also the founder of Ye Olde Tavern Tours, for those who want beer with their history (and vice versa), and the author of Boston in the American Revolution:  A town vs. an Empire, available from Amazon or as part of a tour.  

Haz sets out to enlighten JJ, a self-confessed harmony junkie, in the joys of Minimalism. Starting with the hippy experiments of La Monte Young, they trace the style's evolution via Glass and Reich to the complex scores of post-minimalist, John Adams. Along the way they discover why Haz salivates at the sound of a gamelan and how every minimalist needs a marimba.

The institution of slavery impacted American foreign relations in significant ways from the Revolution to the Civil War.  Historian Steve Brady from the Columbian College of Arts & Sciences discusses these connections in his new book,  Chained to History:  Slavery and United States Foreign Relations to 1865.  He sits down to discuss these many connections, from Article 7 of the Treaty of Paris, to the Haitian Revolution, prohibition of the international slave trade in 1807, the War of 1812 and acquisition of Florida,  the Amphictyonic Conference in Panama, and the role of the Adams generations in the tangled history. 

On this day in 1776, Abigail Adams wrote a letter to her husband, John Adams, imploring him and his political colleagues to keep the interests of women in mind.

In this third episode I'd like us to ask "What Happens to Men".
What happens to men like my father who wasn’t equipped to be a father or a husband, or his father. What chain of events lead to long lasting generation trauma and a struggle to connect for men? 

This episode will focus on a hypothetical case example compiled from the history and stories of America's 6th president, John Quincy Adams.

EPISODE 123: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN

A-Block (1:42) SPECIAL COMMENT: "You have a lot of folks who are just waiting for his mortal demise," says former Michigan Republican Congressman Peter Meijer. "I've heard from a lot of people who will go onstage and put on the red hat and then give me a call the next day and say 'I can't wait until this guy dies.'" It's an amazing strategy but a passive one. And it ignores the various walls closing in on Trump: two District Attorneys, three Grand Juries, one Judiciary Chairman annoyed at John Durham and William Barr, one Judiciary Chairman rebuffed by Merrick Garland, one porn star, and one guy named Pecker.

Still, potentially the most extraordinary story about Trump: the clouds gathering around the arrest of Charlie McGonigal, who was a 24/7, 365 days a year, hot and cold running blackmail-victim-FBI-Agent-waiting-to-happen. And now two analysts look at his arrest and suggest: this may evolve into a) a spy scandal in which the national security was utterly breached and b) a journalistic disaster in which Trump, Russia, and the FBI managed to manipulate The New York Times into pushing Trump across the finish line in 2016.

B-Block (18:53) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Memphis, in Texas (20:06) IN SPORTS: The passing of hockey's Bobby Hull and Cleveland's John Adams; Why was the 52nd best player in baseball chosen to adorn the cover of its top video game? And happy 206th birthday, J. Shorthouse, Esq. (24:07) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: More George Santos stupidity, a Florida Climate Caucus Congresswoman who owns up to $195k in oil stocks, and Megyn Kelly slams Jill Biden for something her own father did.

C-Block (29:56) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: CNN has gone and done it: addressing its cratering ratings by adding a regular Friday segment from Bill Maher's HBO panel. Time again to go back to 2009 when Bill and I nearly brawled at his HBO after-party because he insisted we never met in college (spoiler alert: Oh yeah we did).

On this episode, I talk with the great Toby Poser and John Adams who are one half of The Adams Family Films. You may know them from the Shudder original Hellbender or their other films, The Deeper you Dig and Knuckle Jack. We talk a lot about Hellbender and touch on a bit about some new upcoming projects. We also discussed music and what it's like being a fellow heathen lol.  I had a great time talking with these two amazing people. Hope you enjoy it.
