  • John & Abigail & Smallpox
    2020/02/11
    We dig into the separate smallpox inoculations of John and Abigail Adams and the heartfelt and hilarious love letters this supercouple exchanged during their quarantines, along with some background on Lady Mary Montagu's bold introduction of the smallpox inoculation from Turkey to England. (A note: This is our very first episode, and we were still finding our rhythm and voice. You're welcome to start here, but you might want to start with Season 2 or newer episodes for a better sense of how we've evolved!) Sources: Founders Online - letters between John & Abigail Adams Time Magazine: How One Daring Woman Introduced the Idea of Smallpox Inoculation to England by Thomas Hager The Story of Smallpox in Massachusetts by Samuel Bayard Woodward, M.D. Inspired by my post "Love in the Time of Smallpox" Show notes and sources at plodpod.com Join our Patreon family at https://www.patreon.com/ploddingthroughthepresidents for exclusive bonus content!

  • Jefferson's Broken Heart and Wrist
    2020/02/11
    We explore Thomas Jefferson's dangerous liaison in Paris with the talented artist Maria Cosway and her monkey-like husband Richard Cosway - a love story that resulted in two broken hearts, one permanently damaged wrist, and one epic 4000-word love letter written as a dialogue between Jefferson's head and heart. (A note: This is one of our very first episodes, and we were still finding our rhythm and voice. If you're new to the podcast, you might want to start with Season 2 or newer episodes for a better sense of how we've evolved!)
