  • Summary

  • Four years later. Jimmy Carter is now an embattled president, unpopular and facing a tough primary challenge. Meanwhile, Ronald Reagan storms to the Republican nomination, while wooing a powerful new bloc of voters into his conservative coalition — the Christian Right.

History at its best!

This team did an amazing job at weaving together primary source recordings and a complex story into an easy to understand narrative. Not only that, but the modern relevance follows all the way through without being overly hammered into you. Anyone who follows modern politics can learn quite a bit from these podcasts. I just hope there's about a million more 🙂
