  • The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald (Ohio v. the Great Lakes)

    The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald (Ohio v. the Great Lakes)
    2026/06/02
    Alex heads to the North Coast for Episode 5: "Ohio v. the Great Lakes" to tell the story of the most infamous sinking in Great Lakes history, the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald 50 years ago. 29 sailors lost their lives and the causes for the sinking are still not fully known. The majority of the famous ship's crew were from the Buckeye State. A ship that was known as "the Toledo Express" is forever linked to Ohio. Alex is joined by New York Times bestselling author John U. Bacon to discuss his critically-acclaimed new book Gales of November: The Untold Story of the Edmund Fitzgerald. John breaks down just how dangerous and competitive Great Lakes shipping is when it comes to the iron and steel industry. His excellent book, released on the 50th anniversary of the sinking, details the stories of the 29 crew members and the amazing history of the Great Lakes itself. His tenacious research and amazing writing on the Fitz and the possible causes of the tragedy make Gales of November the definitive book on the SS Edmund Fitzgerald. It's impossible to talk about the Might Fitz and not also tell the story of Gordon Lightfoot's classic 1976 folk song "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald." John breaks it all down for us on Episode 5. Buy the book at any book store in America or click here www.johnubacon.com We travel to Toledo, Ohio to talk with Chris Gillcrist, the Director Emeritus of the National Museum of the Great Lakes about "the Toledo Express, " the SS Edmund Fitzgerald. Chris and the NMGL have been at the forefront of telling the story of the Fitz for decades. Chris joins the show to chat about ship, the possible reasons for the sinking, the great city of Toledo and its many connections to the Fitzgerald.

  • America's Last War on the Border: The Punitive Expedition in Mexico

    America's Last War on the Border: The Punitive Expedition in Mexico
    2026/05/19
    Episode 4: "Ohio v. Mexico". With America's military ramping up operations in the Western Hemisphere, Alex takes a look at America's last war on the southern border, the Punitive Expedition of 1916 in Mexico. The US invaded Mexico following the raid of Columbus, NM and the killing of 18 Americans by Mexican revolutionary, Pancho Villa. This conflict lasted nearly an entire year and would end in a diplomatic fiasco that helped push America and President Woodrow Wilson into World War I. So many Ohioans were involved in this military adventure from the brand new Secretary of War Newton Baker, to Commander of the Southern Theatre, Gen. Frederick Funston, one of the most famous African American soldiers in Colonel Charles Young, even the son of an Ohio President was involved in this war, or sorry, expedition. We look at the circumstances surrounding the Mexican Revolution and how the chaotic situation on our Southern border led to an American invasion in March of 1916. We look at how Villa went from an ally to Public Enemy #1. We're joined by John Sherman, author and professor of history at Wright State University in Dayton, OH to discuss Pancho Villa, the revoultion and the Punitive Expedition that resulted in boots on the ground in Mexico. John takes us through the political upheaval in Mexico, to Villa's attacks on America and the forceful, if unsuccessful, invasion that was waged to capture Pancho Villa. Check our John's new book Mexico: A Concise Illustrated History (2026), https://www.amazon.com/Mexico-Illustrated-John-W-Sherman/dp/B0FBR8LXC4 Bruce Carlson, historian and host of the podcast My History Can Beat Up Your Politics, rejoins the show to discuss the events in Mexico that lead to a full scale American invasion 110 years ago. Bruce expertly leads us through the Mexican Revolution, the difficult mission that was the Punitive Expedition and the Zimmerman Telegram. A controversial diplomatic situation that in part contributed to America's declaration of war against Germany and the Central Powers in April 1917. Forever changing the United States from an isolationist regional power to a global superpower in a few short months. Contact Alex and the show at ohiovtheworld@gmail.com.
