  • We speak to the Executive Director of Archaeology at the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, Jack Gary, who oversees the largest living history museum in the world at Williamsburg, Virginia. In the soil of a proposed construction project, Gary's team unearthed military barracks dating back to the first soldiers of the American Revolution. The new discovery provides an unique view into the everyday life of America's first soldiers - from their habits, to their fashions and beyond. When asked how working at the Virginia archeological site has impacted his perspective on America, Gary says the work has taught him "empathy" - and a deep appreciation "for where our country came from and all the different people who got us to where we are." As we get ready for another election season, we hope this interview does the same. Enjoy!

  • Politicians and the press work for you, the American people, and at SmartHER News, we will never lose sight of that. Today we take a step back to discuss the first presidential debate of the 2024 election … without the clutter.

    Topics include:

    CNN’s debate formatting. Notable exchanges between the top-two Presidential candidates, including the viral golf exchange. The nuances of fact-checking on live television. A sampling of soundbites from political commentators and politicians. The polls, plus an important caveat. The questions Jenna would ask the candidates … their standard for the U.S. Presidency and the responsibility of protecting our children, the next generation. What’s next? (A Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity, lawmakers on the record about last night’s event, Fmr. Pres. Trump’s sentencing, and the unknown.) ... and we close with the final statement of independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. during the alternative debate he hosted last night.
