あらすじ・解説

Our American Stories tells stories that aren’t being told. Positive stories about generosity and courage, resilience and redemption, faith and love. Stories about the past and present. And stories about ordinary Americans who do extraordinary things each and every day. Stories from our listeners about their lives. And their history. In that pursuit, we hope we’ll be a place where listeners can refresh their spirit, and be inspired by our stories.

  • How the Super Bowl Was Born: From Rival Leagues to a National Holiday

    How the Super Bowl Was Born: From Rival Leagues to a National Holiday
    2026/02/06

    On this episode of Our American Stories, The Super Bowl wasn’t always America’s biggest event. Emmy Award–winning producer and author Dennis Deninger tells how a rejected expansion bid, the rise of the AFL, and secret merger talks led to the creation of a new championship game.

    From its unsold seats and modest halftime shows to its transformation into a cultural and economic juggernaut, this is the story of how the Super Bowl grew from a league experiment into America’s secular holiday. Deninger is the author of The Football Game That Changed America.

  • The Family That Kept “I’ll Fly Away” Alive

    The Family That Kept “I’ll Fly Away” Alive
    2026/02/06

    On this episode of Our American Stories, sisters Betsy and Elaine Brumley tell the story of their father, Bob, and the family legacy he carried forward from his father, gospel songwriter Albert E. Brumley, who wrote classics like “I’ll Fly Away” and “Turn Your Radio On.” From a music publishing base in Powell, Missouri, Bob kept the Brumley catalog alive through decades of change, from songbooks and live singings to film, television, and streaming. It’s the Brumley family story, and a portrait of how great American gospel music gets preserved, one generation at a time.
