HAPPY NEW YEAR !!! 

THANK YOU FOR TUNING IN THIS PAST YEAR OF 2023 TOO!!

In this episode, we look back at several people we have featured through the years who passed away during 2023. They included Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, former Congressman John Jenrette, Former First Lady Rosalynn Carter, and Senator Dianne Feinstein of California.  Sadly, Congressman Jenrette passed away just as we were completing our series on him and his eventful and often colorful career. We also lost two of my favorite entertainers this year, Jimmy Buffett and Tony Bennett,  both of whom we tried to work into our show intro. Tony Bennett was also a World War 2 Veteran who served in Europe. 

As we look forward to 2024, we will be introducing some new features to our podcast, our new "Grand Strand Politics" segment which will cover the coming South Carolina Presidential Primary for both the Republican and Democratic Parties. Plus we will begin our new monthly interview segments with various figures involved in South Carolina and National politics. We hope these new features will add a level of excitement to our podcast over the next 12 months. 

We are, in this episode, also  previewing our sister podcast "The Richard Nixon Experience"  which will be rebroadcasting our earlier series "Nixon and Watergate" all this year as we head up to the 50th Anniversary of the resignation of President Richard Nixon. We have a lot planned on our other podcast for the commemoration and invite you to tune in over there and head over to our website www.RandalWallace.com to look at our episodes,  our books,  and our "2024 Richard Nixon Vindication Tour" T-Shirts.  We hope you will join our efforts to expose the wrongs done our 37th President, Richard Nixon,  in this 50th anniversary year of the resignation, and as we go through again  the dubious ways it came about happening. 

We also have three more seasons of Historical Podcast Documentaries planned and in this episode we will be previewing them as well. We will look back at the consequential Presidency of George H. W. Bush as he has more foreign and domestic policy decisions to make in a monumental moment of historic change around the world.  In "George H. W. Bush 1990 - 1991 The Sweep of History" and "George H. W. Bush 1992 The Changing of the Guard"  

Then we come to the end of the World War 2 Generations four decades at the center of American Power, as we look back at the last public figure of the era, in "Bob Dole 1993 - 1996 The Last Man Standing", as Dole attempts to hold off the government overreach that has become the hallmark of the Federal Government of the past 30 years.  It would be the last stand of the reasonable type Leadership we had seen from  the Greatest Generation that had created the American Century and it will  leave us all with the question as to whether we have been worthy of the legacy they left us. 

Overall, I think we have an exciting and interesting 2024 planned here at the "Randal Wallace Presents" and "Richard Nixon Experience " Podcasts. We hope you will tune in, and we thank you for the years of loyal listening as we enter our 4th year and 12th thru 15th seasons on the air.
