The Losers tells the story of people lost to the pages of popular American history. They once presented the country with a vision of the future. They offered a unique interpretation of what America meant to the world. This short podcast series tells the story of candidates who stood at the precipice of the American presidency. But the country and the voters opted to go a different way. It is the story of those who lost the presidential election and somehow became forgotten by most of history. In their day, they stood on the cutting edge of power and politics. It is also the story of what might have been.
The story of those who lost the presidential election is not only the story of once-famous individual lives. It is also the story of an America that was and the shifts in direction we chose to make along the way.
The Losers podcast series features JB Shreve and Ben Lagrone telling the story. Each post in the series features links referenced within the podcast episodes.
