Inaugural Addresses Podcast

Life is good, and James Monroe wants to keep making it better! (by peace through strength, improved infrastructure, and a strong economy)

As the War of 1812 rages on, Madison explains why America is in the right and reminds us that the British are jerks.

James Madison talks about some countries who are causing trouble (he doesn't name names, but, France and Britain) by fighting each other, and how the US is trying hard to remain neutral, then lists his priorities as President. Also, good job Thomas Jefferson!

In this episode, Jefferson gets rid of taxes, wants to “enlighten” the indians, and complains about fake news.

In this episode, Thomas Jefferson says we're all really on the same side, and describes his idea of a good government.

John Adams gives a brief history of the US Constitution, thanks George Washington for doing a great job, and tells us why he will be a good president.

George Washington's super short second inaugural address. Still no Capitol Building, so this was at Congress Hall in Philadelphia.

In this, the inaugural episode of the Inaugural Addresses Podcast, you will hear our country's very first presidential inaugural address, given by the man himself, George Washington. 

He gave this address, not at the Capitol Building (it hadn't been built yet) but at Federal Hall in New York City, on April 30, 1789.
