Want more? There's more! There were a couple of decades without these personal radio messages from the President, until Ronald Reagan revived the idea in the early 1980's, directly inspired by Roosevelt's Fireside Chats. Every president since has continued the tradition in some form. Unfortunately, they haven't always been widely heard, or easily accessible. So we're putting them all together in one place, in podcast form. It's called "The Presidential Radio Address," and you can find it on most podcast platforms. Releasing daily until we catch up to the present day. Go check it out, and subscribe. Have fun, and enjoy learning!
