    Bleeding Kansas to Harpers Ferry: John Brown's Radical Crusade | The American Story | Ep 15
    Jul 25 2026
    Before John Brown became a martyr to some and a monster to others, he made a vow dedicating his life to the destruction of slavery. This episode follows the radical abolitionist through the chaos of Bleeding Kansas, the vicious murders at Pottawatomie Creek, and Brown’s foolhardy attack on the federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry. Meet Frederick Douglass, the former slave who pricked the nation’s conscience with his eloquence, and the Secret Six who funded Brown’s doomed war on slavery. As Harriet Beecher Stowe’s novel Uncle Tom’s Cabin stirred the nation, Brown chose violence over words, producing shockwaves that helped move the nation toward Civil War.

    Jul 18 2026
    An assault on a congressman in Washington launches a chain of events that would permanently redraw the map of North America. This episode traces the remarkable rise of Sam Houston from his Cherokee roots, political scandal, and exile, through the Alamo, San Jacinto, and the fight over Texas annexation. Then President James K. Polk turns Manifest Destiny into war, sending American armies deep into Mexico over protests from critics in Congress calling out the bloodshed. And an unknown State Department clerk defies the White House in negotiating the treaty that secures the vast American Southwest, setting America on a collision course with itself.

  • Andrew Jackson vs. John Quincy Adams: The Birth of American Political Warfare | The American Story | Ep 13

    Andrew Jackson vs. John Quincy Adams: The Birth of American Political Warfare | The American Story | Ep 13
    Jul 11 2026
    Two American giants collide in the brutal birth of modern politics. John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson were born the same year, but they represented two radically different Americas. One was a polished diplomat raised for public service; the other was a fiery frontier warrior who carried bullets, grudges, and political rage. Their rivalry explodes through the “corrupt bargain” of 1824, the vicious election of 1828, and leads to the birth of the Democratic Party. This is the story of how Andrew Jackson forever altered the presidency, and how John Quincy Adams found new purpose as a warrior in the fight against slavery.
