 Date: June 25, 2025 Legacy Makers: Stories of Black Inventors and Icons Title and Show Info Episode #30. What a Wonderful World: The Louis Armstrong Story Featuring: Toni Davis (Host & Storyteller). Summary 🎙️ Before he was Satchmo, he was a boy from The Battlefield—a dirt-poor New Orleans neighborhood with more gunshots than good luck. But out of the chaos came a sound that would change music forever. In this sweeping, soulful episode, we follow the full arc of Louis Armstrong’s extraordinary life: from his scrappy beginnings and reform school redemption to revolutionizing jazz with the Hot Fives and Hot Sevens. You'll meet the mentors, the marriages (some stormy, some steady), and the moments that made a boy with a cornet into the king of swing. With Lil Hardin’s ambition, King Oliver’s call, and a trumpet that refused to play quietly, Louis tore through the 1920s and '30s, shattered racial barriers in Hollywood, and dazzled radio waves across America. He wasn't just playing music—he was changing hearts. From wartime tours with the All-Stars to stealing the show in High Society and knocking The Beatles off the charts with Hello, Dolly!, Louis became a global icon. And when he recorded What a Wonderful World, it wasn’t just a song—it was a statement of defiant optimism in a fractured time. This is not just the story of a jazz legend. It's the story of a man who turned pain into poetry, rhythm into revolution, and joy into a global language. 🎧Tune in and travel from New Orleans to the Vatican, and from heartbreak to high notes—because the world still spins to the sound of Satchmo. 🎺What a Wonderful World: The Louis Armstrong Story begins here. 🎺 Top of Form Top of Form Highlights: 00:57- INTRO. 01:02- LOUIS ARMSTRONG BIRTH. 01:23- HIS MOTHER MARY ALBERT. 01:25- HIS FATHER. 02:07- SENT TO REFORM SCHOOL. 02:30- CORNET. 02:54- BEGINS PERFORMING. 03:10- KID ORY’S BAND. 03:19- MARRIES DAISY PARKER. 03:29- CREOLE JAZZ BAND IN CHICAGO. 04:22- MARRIES LIL HARDIN. 04:30- FLETCHER HENDERSON’S ORCHESTRA IN NYC. 05:23- THE HOT FIVE AND THE HOT SEVEN. 06:02- “SATCHMO”. 06:38- FILM DEBUT. 07:09- RADIO. 07:57- ENDS MARRIAGE WITH LIL HARDIN. 08:02- MARRIES ALPHA SMITH. 08:15- MARRIES LUCILLE WILSON. 08:24- THE COUPLE PURCHASE A HOME IN CORONA, QUEENS, NY. 08:31- FORMS THE LOUIS ARMSTRONG ALL STARS BAND. 08:53- PUBLISHES MEMOIR. 09:54- RELEASES THE SONG, “WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD”. 10:21- PRESIDENTIAL MEDAL OF FREEDOM. 10:27- PLAYS FOR POPE PAUL VI AT THE VATICAN. 10:57- PASSES AWAY. 11:31- BURIED. 11:42- CONCLUSION.
