All families tell stories about themselves. Those stories are passed down, and like an intergenerational game of telephone, the details sometimes change from fact to fiction. But have you ever wondered how much of the lore is actually true? Family Lore is a weekly narrative podcast that celebrates and investigates ancestral mystique. Each episode begins with a guest sharing a fascinating family legend, followed by a historical deep-dive to uncover the truth and meaning behind the tale. Whether it’s a grandfather who flew before the Wright Brothers, a great-aunt who invented the margarita, or a great-uncle who killed a Texas ranching scion, each story offers an intimate glimpse into the familial fables that captivate us. Family Lore is an Audacy original podcast.

  • Hope, Through History: Episode 2 | Winston Churchill and World War II

    Hope, Through History: Episode 2 | Winston Churchill and World War II
    Apr 28 2020
    In May of 1940, Great Britain was in the crosshairs of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi war machine. As nations on mainland Europe fell prey to fascism, Winston Churchill seized the moment in dramatic fashion, ultimately winning a permanent place in the pantheon of heroic leaders who have single-handedly shifted the course of history. Churchill believed that “the only safe way” forward “was to convince Hitler that he couldn’t beat us.” And the only safe way to do that was to fight on. Accompanied by award-winning authors Erik Larson, Evan Thomas and Andrew Roberts, Jon Meacham revives one of the most consequential days of World War II, and creates a portrait of a man who used courage, candor and cooperation to protect the future of democracy.

He brings a inspirational message and demonstrates there is imperfect people who can rise above them to lead us to a better life and keep us moving forward together always. We must restore our collective resolve and resilience by remembering the past. We have been in crisis before and can again restore HOPE and win the day whatever comes.

Hope is what we needed and is Hope that remains!

Historians selling hope? Historiography is in the business of selling a product. Pessimism doesn’t sell well. So we get a gloss, either by design or their myth training, that America is exceptional.

In fact, it is exceptional in its violence, racism and intolerance of others. The legacy of conquest and regeneration through violence.

The Trump era has exploded the myths and exposed the rot.

Hope through history? Ha.
