Want to know some quick, interesting facts about James K. Polk? - Mini 9 - 04-16-2010
The "I got sick traveling" post made me think of this great little podcast.

I've never seen the word "interesting" in the same sentence with "James K. Polk" before.

Assuming all the things mentioned are indeed true, a very revealing tale of a president who is overlooked by most. Listened to one of the other podcast and found the guy is very good at making history more alive.

I forget how I latched onto his podcasts. I've exchanged emails with him, THANKING him and encouraging him not to stop. (his twitter account has FEW followers).
I find it really hits the spot. Brief, interest-packed podcasts. That's all I ask for. And a MILLION TIMES better than most OTA media (TV radio)... to me, at least.
