In the tenth and final episode of the special 10-part season on U.S. Presidents from the 5 Minute Biographies podcast, we take a look at the life of John Tyler, the tenth President of the United States. As the first vice president to assume the presidency due to the death of a sitting president, Tyler set important precedents for the office. Join us as we explore his unexpected rise to power, his political struggles, and his lasting influence on the presidency.
