35:02 The difference you've missed is that between a State government & the federal government. He doesn't govern as president in the same way as governor of California.
I once saw film of RR’s boyhood home which was regarded as modest. He lived there in the twenties or thirties. I thought about the amount of slum housing that people in the UK we’re living in at that same period and who would have thought his home a palace. The same could be said of most people’s living conditions throughout the world then. Then I thought about the housing crisis in the US today and how so many Americans couldn’t afford Regan’s « modest » childhood home even now.
Houses in smaller towns and more rural areas of the US are still much more reasonably priced. Reagan grew up in small town. Bigger houses have often been alot more in reach of working class people in the US compared to the UK and most of Europe.
I will never forgive Jimmy Carter for not allowing us to go to the Olympics in Moscow in 1980 he blew a lot of people's dreams a lot of people trained very hard for that Olympics and we couldn't go because they were in Afghanistan ha
You can hear the sneering contempt dripping off them.. I listen to this occasionally just to hear what Leftist contempt sounds like unvarnished. Reagan and Thatcher were both hated by the ‘reactionary’ Left, it just so happens that by flying in the face of the standard Leftist establishment, they both helped their countries recover. That led to a quarter century of the most robust growth their countries had had for decades. So much so the next leaders of other parties carried on with the economic policies. But despite their success, they were just holding back the Leftist tide… and now we’re back to normal service, the Leftist Establishment manages the decline. The Left is pro-poverty, they need new clients, new voters to keep them in power. They hate everything that made the West succeed, industry, small business, individualism, free markets, freedom itself which they wish to manage of our behalf. The Left is a plague upon humankind.
I try when choosing my podcasts and entertainment to find ones that have no or little political bias, does anyone know who Morecambe and Wise or The Two Ronnies voted for? no because we didn't need to know, this appears to be a requirement with MSM and particularly with the BBC, last night i settled down to listen to 'The Mystery Of The Cathars' which turned out to be a blatant attack on the white working class, I'm probably one of the 'Gammons ' you talk of. the single most woke podcast I've had the misfortune of listening to, I consider my politics centre of the road, what happened to respecting others opinions, my search goes on.
Sure buddy, if you can listen to that Cathars episode, about a medieval religious sect, and find an attack against the white working class, I don't know what to tell you. Leads me to think you're the type of loon who sees threats all around him everyday. And a barely coherent run on paragraph doesn't make you look less schizophrenic

By all accounts, Reagan did. As president, he worked a 7 or 8 hour day and relied heavily on advisers.

Thanks y’all
Thanks!
Direct sponsorship of TV programs was later cancelled in the US after the 1960s 'quiz show' scandal.
33:24 That's my take.

This entirely depends on where that home is located. Where Reagan's home is, & certainly at the time he lived in it, nearly anyone could afford it.
Houses in smaller towns and more rural areas of the US are still much more reasonably priced.
Reagan grew up in small town.
Bigger houses have often been alot more in reach of working class people in the US compared to the UK and most of Europe.
Hence why he always seemed so grateful
I bet those UK people living in slums had indoor plumbing. Reagan didnt.
Hey guys.... I'm not sure.... I'm confused... Did RR read Reader's Digest?
More likely to be a Daily Mail reader.

No one cares about whiny athletes.
Reagan won because of the Iran hostage crises, that cause the Iran-Contras problem.
Reagan won because the democrat had ruined the economy. I had a car loan during those years at .17 percent. People were tried of the inflation.
I recall that the hostage crisis crippled the Jimmy Carter administration.
@@IanCross-xj2gjespecially the botched rescue by US Marines
Awesome 👏🏿
I've always been curious as to how left-liberals can always hear that famous "dog whistle."
It's because of their highly developed 'unconsciouis bias'!!!
Tom Holland can’t help himself but to overlay his totally unfounded critical narrative. It undermines what is normally an excellent podcast.
Totally agree. Especially to an American
Tom sounds nothing like Ronald Reagan. I'm sorry.
Ofc he sounds nothing like Reagan, that's why he's laughing at himself, ya dingus.

local man hears historian DARE to not refer to his favourite politicians with heroic prose, dominic sandbrook is now a sneering leftist

What the actual fuck are you on about Reagan set us back decades

What are you going on about you absolute nutter?

Rambling run on sentences make you seem unhinged

Wish you guys weren’t so damn left wing. Just stick to the facts, not the goody/baddie commentaries.
