  • How Hard Can It Be, Boys Do It? Plus, Fighting for Equal Rights After the Civil War, and Answers to Your Questions

    How Hard Can It Be, Boys Do It? Plus, Fighting for Equal Rights After the Civil War, and Answers to Your Questions
    Nov 17 2025
    It’s not something you’ll read about in most history books. Sharon tells the remarkable story of Florence Hall and her Women’s Land Army: the women who took over the farming jobs American men left behind when they went off to fight World War II. These women weren’t just fill-ins, in many cases, the farms they worked on were even more successful than when the men were doing the work.Plus, Sharon is joined again by Akhil Reed Amar, one of the nation’s foremost constitutional scholars, to talk about his newest book, Born Equal, and the battle over who had the right to call themselves American citizens after the Civil War. If you’ve been wanting to learn more about birthright citizenship, this conversation is for you. And Sharon answers your most pressing questions: Will we all be getting $2,000 checks because of President Trump’s tariffs? Could 50 year mortgages be coming? Can Chuck Schumer be replaced as the Senate Minority Leader? If you’d like to submit a question, head to thepreamble.com/podcast – we’d love to hear from you there.

    Nov 10 2025
    A shocking phone call after a routine medical exam. Despite no symptoms, Sharon’s husband had advanced kidney disease and he would die without a transplant. She shares the deeply personal story of a stranger saving Chris’s life, and what it taught her about the selflessness of others. Plus, her fascinating conversation with Colin Woodard, author of Nations Apart, who goes back generations to explain why America is so polarized, and tells us what we can do about it. And Sharon answers your most pressing questions: Will the U.S. take military action in Nigeria because of Christian persecution? How can the richest country in the world be so much in debt? Can government officials use taxpayer-funded websites for partisan attacks? If you’d like to submit a question, head to thepreamble.com/podcast – we’d love to hear from you there.

Sharon is a historical savant. Her knowledge of all things history and all things random and unknown is vast and far reaching.
She’s a fascinating story teller and great at capturing the essence of those she brings back from the dead. I love being a part of her book club and I love even more listening to her podcast.

I have been following Sharon Says So on Instagram for a while. She is a desperately needed voice of clarity, with a solid dose of fun, random highlights on unusual bits of history, geography and wildlife, and "unreasonable" generosity. Her podcast will continue all of that and more! Highly recommend.

Sharon is a "Must Follow"
