9
00:00:45,922 --> 00:00:49,242

Speaker 2: a clip show that sends you back into the archives.

23

Speaker 2: We'll put all the links in the show notes and

Speaker 2: hope you find something new.

25
00:01:43,682 --> 00:01:50,242
Speaker 1: It's December nineteen seventy two. Canadian Jamie Matthews, age fourteen,

26
00:01:50,922 --> 00:01:55,682
Speaker 1: is sitting comfortably in his airplane seat. It's his first

27
00:01:55,722 --> 00:02:02,522
Speaker 1: trip away from home. Jamie's first love is astronomy, and

28
00:02:02,682 --> 00:02:06,762
Speaker 1: astronomy has earned him the trip of a lifetime. He's

29
00:02:07,002 --> 00:02:11,122
Speaker 1: been to the White House, to NASA's Mission control in Texas,

30
00:02:11,402 --> 00:02:17,962
Speaker 1: to the United Nations, and now he's returning home. But

31
00:02:18,082 --> 00:02:22,242
Speaker 1: there's a problem, and no it's not the airline food.

32
00:02:22,962 --> 00:02:28,242
Speaker 1: Someone is threatening to kidnap Jamie because he has a rock,

33
00:02:28,922 --> 00:02:34,002
Speaker 1: and not just any rock, a moonwalk one retrieved by

34
00:02:34,042 --> 00:02:38,722
Speaker 1: an astronaut two hundred and forty thousand miles from Earth.

35
00:02:39,242 --> 00:02:43,202
Speaker 3: This is your captain speaking Jamie Matthews. Please come to

36
00:02:43,242 --> 00:02:46,242
Speaker 3: the front of the plane. Jamie Matthews, to the front

37
00:02:46,282 --> 00:02:49,122
Speaker 3: of the plane. Two scary men are here to pick

38
00:02:49,162 --> 00:02:54,282
Speaker 3: you up. I repeat, two very serious looking men are

39
00:02:54,322 --> 00:02:55,962
Speaker 3: here to take you away.

40
00:02:57,602 --> 00:03:03,522
Speaker 1: Jamie takes some tentative steps forward. He's just landed in Detroit.

41
00:03:04,122 --> 00:03:07,562
Speaker 1: Two adults in dark suits meet him on the tarmac.

42
00:03:08,202 --> 00:03:12,122
Speaker 1: Now these men are not the kidnappers. They're from the

43
00:03:12,242 --> 00:03:17,082
Speaker 1: United States Secret Service. They explain to Jamie what's happening.

44
00:03:17,562 --> 00:03:21,642
Speaker 1: His parents back in Canada received an alarming phone call

45
00:03:21,882 --> 00:03:26,802
Speaker 1: threatening his safety all because of this rock. They want

46
00:03:26,842 --> 00:03:31,402
Speaker 1: to escort him to the Canadian border, just to be safe.

47
00:03:31,602 --> 00:03:35,922
Speaker 1: Because the Moon rock isn't exactly a souvenir, it's one

48
00:03:35,962 --> 00:03:41,122
Speaker 1: of the most rare and valuable materials on Earth. It

49
00:03:41,162 --> 00:03:45,362
Speaker 1: could be worth millions. To Jamie, it's worth even more.

50
00:03:46,282 --> 00:03:50,162
Speaker 1: But what the kidnappers don't know is that Jamie doesn't

51
00:03:50,202 --> 00:03:55,722
Speaker 1: have it, not yet anyway, but he will. And the

52
00:03:55,762 --> 00:04:00,282
Speaker 1: men who called Jamie's parents, they're not the only ones

53
00:04:00,362 --> 00:04:02,482
Speaker 1: who want a piece of the moon.

54
00:04:06,242 --> 00:04:08,882
Speaker 2: All right, sound of that episode? You want to go

55
00:04:08,922 --> 00:04:12,202
Speaker 2: listen to the full thing. It's called Operation Lunar Eclipse.

56
00:04:12,522 --> 00:04:16,762
Speaker 2: It was our second episode, and again all these lengths

57
00:04:16,802 --> 00:04:19,642
Speaker 2: will be in the show notes. Another early episode, this

58
00:04:19,882 --> 00:04:22,642
Speaker 2: was in fact our first, was called Boat Trip. We

59
00:04:22,802 --> 00:04:27,082
Speaker 2: drop in on the set of James Cameron's Titanic in

60
00:04:27,122 --> 00:04:30,322
Speaker 2: the mid nineties, and it's the night someone poisoned the

61
00:04:30,402 --> 00:04:33,322
Speaker 2: cast and crew with PCP. It's just one of the

62
00:04:33,362 --> 00:04:35,522
Speaker 2: craziest stories I've ever heard.

63
00:04:39,802 --> 00:04:41,842
Speaker 3: Everybody quiet off I heard.

64
00:04:45,322 --> 00:04:49,602
Speaker 1: It's the night of August eighth, nineteen ninety six. A

65
00:04:49,682 --> 00:04:53,322
Speaker 1: crew in Halifax, Nova, Scotia is working hard on the

66
00:04:53,442 --> 00:04:57,482
Speaker 1: last day of filming at this location. After weeks of

67
00:04:57,522 --> 00:05:02,962
Speaker 1: working overtime and several grueling night shoots, everyone could use

68
00:05:03,002 --> 00:05:06,842
Speaker 1: a break. Around midnight, the crew breaks for a meal.

69
00:05:07,482 --> 00:05:11,802
Speaker 1: It's a welcome respite from setting up cameras, positioning lights,

70
00:05:12,202 --> 00:05:16,682
Speaker 1: and capturing tedious takes of the same scene. It's a

71
00:05:16,802 --> 00:05:21,522
Speaker 1: chance to relax with colleagues and friends, if only briefly.

72
00:05:22,522 --> 00:05:26,922
Speaker 1: But here's what the crew doesn't know. Within thirty minutes,

73
00:05:27,482 --> 00:05:32,562
Speaker 1: all hell will be unleashed on set. It's an incident

74
00:05:32,882 --> 00:05:36,802
Speaker 1: no one could have predicted because it had never happened before,

75
00:05:37,642 --> 00:05:42,442
Speaker 1: or since it's the night the crew of James Cameron's

76
00:05:42,602 --> 00:05:48,722
Speaker 1: Titanic was drugged. Every on set department was affected that night,

77
00:05:49,202 --> 00:05:52,962
Speaker 1: from the grips and electricians to the set decorators and

78
00:05:53,082 --> 00:05:58,522
Speaker 1: camera operators, from the assistant directors to the actors, and yes,

79
00:05:58,762 --> 00:06:04,202
Speaker 1: even future Oscar winner James Cameron. As the chaos ensued

80
00:06:04,322 --> 00:06:09,242
Speaker 1: that night, the mystery of who drugged the crew was ignited.

81
00:06:10,122 --> 00:06:16,242
Speaker 1: A multi year police investigation followed, and one question haunted

82
00:06:16,402 --> 00:06:19,362
Speaker 1: everyone impacted that fateful evening.

83
00:06:20,602 --> 00:06:29,722
Speaker 2: Why did you ever wonder who wrote the pledge of allegiance? No, well,

84
00:06:29,882 --> 00:06:33,482
Speaker 2: stick with me anyway. There's one accepted story about the origin,

85
00:06:33,562 --> 00:06:37,802
Speaker 2: a very specific story told the same way over many decades.

86
00:06:38,242 --> 00:06:41,242
Speaker 2: But in this episode we explore whether that story can

87
00:06:41,282 --> 00:06:45,842
Speaker 2: withstand the test of a curious researcher armed withthewspapers dot

88
00:06:45,842 --> 00:06:50,762
Speaker 2: com account. I give you the pledge.

89
00:06:51,722 --> 00:06:57,442
Speaker 1: It's October twenty first, eighteen ninety two. Across the United States,

90
00:06:57,682 --> 00:07:00,962
Speaker 1: school kids are gathering for a once in a lifetime

91
00:07:01,042 --> 00:07:07,082
Speaker 1: celebration the four hundredth anniversary of Columbus's discovery of America.

92
00:07:07,682 --> 00:07:11,642
Speaker 1: Of course, Columbus never actually stepped foot on American soil,

93
00:07:12,082 --> 00:07:14,882
Speaker 1: and he went to his grave thinking he really landed

94
00:07:14,962 --> 00:07:19,722
Speaker 1: in India. But that's a topic for another podcast. Back

95
00:07:19,762 --> 00:07:24,642
Speaker 1: to eighteen ninety two. In celebration of this flawed and

96
00:07:24,882 --> 00:07:32,082
Speaker 1: historically inaccurate holiday, then President Benjamin Harrison issues a special proclamation.

97
00:07:32,722 --> 00:07:36,922
Speaker 1: He calls for America's new system of public schools to

98
00:07:37,122 --> 00:07:42,282
Speaker 1: fly the American flag high and proud. As parades of

99
00:07:42,362 --> 00:07:46,122
Speaker 1: Civil War veterans file into school yards across the country,

100
00:07:46,482 --> 00:07:50,362
Speaker 1: Students prepare to salute the flag. And not just that

101
00:07:51,162 --> 00:07:55,562
Speaker 1: they're about to recite a new patriotic oath. They've been

102
00:07:55,602 --> 00:07:59,162
Speaker 1: practicing it every day for a month, just for this

103
00:07:59,482 --> 00:08:03,402
Speaker 1: special occasion. It's only twenty two words long, but it's

104
00:08:03,442 --> 00:08:06,642
Speaker 1: still a mouthful for a bunch of school children for

105
00:08:06,642 --> 00:08:08,042
Speaker 1: a name, anyone really.

106
00:08:08,522 --> 00:08:11,802
Speaker 2: Pledge allegiance to my flag and the Republic for which

107
00:08:11,842 --> 00:08:16,882
Speaker 2: it stands, one nation indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

108
00:08:18,962 --> 00:08:23,282
Speaker 1: Sound familiar. Sure, it's missing a few words and phrases.

109
00:08:23,802 --> 00:08:28,762
Speaker 1: Those would come decades later. But that day, October twenty first,

110
00:08:29,002 --> 00:08:33,002
Speaker 1: eighteen ninety two, was the public debut of what we

111
00:08:33,082 --> 00:08:38,162
Speaker 1: all recognize now as the Pledge of Allegiance. The thing is,

112
00:08:38,602 --> 00:08:42,642
Speaker 1: back then, it wasn't called the Capital P Pledge of

113
00:08:43,162 --> 00:08:48,562
Speaker 1: Capital A Allegiance. It wasn't a thing yet in eighteen

114
00:08:48,682 --> 00:08:51,802
Speaker 1: ninety two, no one had an inkling that this short

115
00:08:51,922 --> 00:08:56,322
Speaker 1: patriotic oath, written for a one time event would ever

116
00:08:56,362 --> 00:09:00,402
Speaker 1: be uttered again. As we'll see, the story of the

117
00:09:00,442 --> 00:09:03,962
Speaker 1: Pledge of Allegiance is a story of a nation at

118
00:09:04,002 --> 00:09:08,882
Speaker 1: a crossroads, a nation still here from the collective trauma

119
00:09:08,962 --> 00:09:12,602
Speaker 1: of the Civil War, a nation experiencing one of the

120
00:09:12,722 --> 00:09:17,082
Speaker 1: largest influxes of immigrants in its history. It was a

121
00:09:17,122 --> 00:09:21,122
Speaker 1: time of tremendous anxiety over what it meant to be

122
00:09:21,242 --> 00:09:26,762
Speaker 1: an American, and the original Pledge, with its twenty two words,

123
00:09:27,362 --> 00:09:31,482
Speaker 1: was supposed to offer an answer. The crazy thing is

124
00:09:31,522 --> 00:09:34,722
Speaker 1: more than one hundred and thirty years later, after reciting

125
00:09:34,762 --> 00:09:38,962
Speaker 1: the pledge every morning in nearly every classroom in America,

126
00:09:39,522 --> 00:09:43,642
Speaker 1: we still have absolutely no idea who wrote it.

127
00:09:46,362 --> 00:09:49,242
Speaker 2: Now. We recorded this next one at the Super Bowl

128
00:09:49,282 --> 00:09:52,162
Speaker 2: in Las Vegas on Radio Row as part of our

129
00:09:52,402 --> 00:09:56,322
Speaker 2: iHeart NFL partnership Great Week. It may no longer be

130
00:09:56,402 --> 00:10:00,482
Speaker 2: football season, but Andy Stateon's story is good for all

131
00:10:00,522 --> 00:10:01,362
Speaker 2: sports seasons.

132
00:10:08,682 --> 00:10:13,562
Speaker 1: It's twenty twelve and players at Culver Stockton College in Canton, Missouri,

133
00:10:13,922 --> 00:10:18,642
Speaker 1: are gearing up for football practice. Canton is a college town,

134
00:10:18,842 --> 00:10:22,602
Speaker 1: but not a big one. Nestled near the Mississippi River,

135
00:10:22,722 --> 00:10:27,042
Speaker 1: the population is less than three thousand. Their source of

136
00:10:27,082 --> 00:10:32,362
Speaker 1: athletic pride is the Culver Stockton Wildcats, but times have

137
00:10:32,442 --> 00:10:36,402
Speaker 1: been tough. During the previous season, they went just one

138
00:10:36,562 --> 00:10:41,482
Speaker 1: and ten. It wasn't so much sport as human sacrifice,

139
00:10:42,082 --> 00:10:45,642
Speaker 1: but there's a sense their fortunes can be turned around,

140
00:10:46,202 --> 00:10:50,762
Speaker 1: maybe with some new blood. At practice, a freshman named

141
00:10:50,882 --> 00:10:55,202
Speaker 1: Mike Davis looks around and spots an older man, a

142
00:10:55,562 --> 00:10:59,922
Speaker 1: very very big man, six foot five and two hundred

143
00:10:59,962 --> 00:11:04,322
Speaker 1: and ninety five pounds, and Mike starts to wonder if

144
00:11:04,362 --> 00:11:07,362
Speaker 1: maybe this giant has a son who's going to be

145
00:11:07,402 --> 00:11:11,962
Speaker 1: playing here, hopefully a kid who has the same oversized proportions.

146
00:11:12,762 --> 00:11:14,962
Speaker 2: And I'm looking around the wave room, you know, just

147
00:11:14,962 --> 00:11:17,762
Speaker 2: like who's this guy's got a kit here? Like, whose

148
00:11:18,002 --> 00:11:19,962
Speaker 2: kid is this guy's?

149
00:11:20,002 --> 00:11:23,882
Speaker 1: Mike's head coach looks at the guy, then back at Mike.

150
00:11:24,162 --> 00:11:26,322
Speaker 2: And he goes, Oh, no, that's Andy. He's actually gonna

151
00:11:26,322 --> 00:11:30,282
Speaker 2: be playing for us. And at that point my mind

152
00:11:30,282 --> 00:11:32,842
Speaker 2: blew a little bit and I was like, well, that's

153
00:11:32,882 --> 00:11:36,122
Speaker 2: a grown man. I was like, you know, I asked him, like,

154
00:11:36,122 --> 00:11:37,722
Speaker 2: how old is he? Always thirty eight?

155
00:11:38,682 --> 00:11:42,922
Speaker 1: Thirty eight is older than the coach, older than the trainers,

156
00:11:43,402 --> 00:11:48,522
Speaker 1: older than almost everyone in and around the team. That's

157
00:11:48,562 --> 00:11:53,002
Speaker 1: how Mike and every other player learns about Andy Stayton.

158
00:11:53,642 --> 00:11:57,922
Speaker 1: Andy is the newest nose tackle for the Wildcats and

159
00:11:58,002 --> 00:12:00,882
Speaker 1: a man who's about to get a second lease on

160
00:12:01,042 --> 00:12:04,362
Speaker 1: life by returning to a game he walked away from

161
00:12:04,682 --> 00:12:09,362
Speaker 1: almost twenty years prior. It's an opportunity to provide a

162
00:12:09,402 --> 00:12:13,642
Speaker 1: better life for himself and his kids and close a

163
00:12:13,722 --> 00:12:17,922
Speaker 1: chapter on a story he never quite finished. But as

164
00:12:18,002 --> 00:12:22,442
Speaker 1: a midlife crisis goes, this one is going to hurt

165
00:12:23,162 --> 00:12:23,642
Speaker 1: a lot.

166
00:12:27,042 --> 00:12:30,242
Speaker 2: Okay, one more to highlight. Someone one day might ask

167
00:12:30,282 --> 00:12:35,362
Speaker 2: you your favorite botany rivalry, and I want you to

168
00:12:35,402 --> 00:12:41,842
Speaker 2: have a good answer, So listen to seed Wars.

169
00:12:42,962 --> 00:12:47,282
Speaker 1: In nineteen twenty nine, Joseph Stalin ordered the farmers of

170
00:12:47,322 --> 00:12:52,282
Speaker 1: the Soviet Union to start a utopia. Back then, the

171
00:12:52,522 --> 00:12:57,802
Speaker 1: USSR was a quilt of old school, frankly almost medieval

172
00:12:58,322 --> 00:13:03,482
Speaker 1: farming villages. Peasants lived simply. They grew their own food

173
00:13:03,882 --> 00:13:07,882
Speaker 1: and if they felt like it, sold the surplus. Stalin

174
00:13:08,122 --> 00:13:13,122
Speaker 1: saw that as a problem. The Soviet Union was industrializing.

175
00:13:13,602 --> 00:13:17,602
Speaker 1: People were flocking to cities, and many of them didn't

176
00:13:17,642 --> 00:13:22,162
Speaker 1: have garden plots to grow their own food. Meanwhile, the

177
00:13:22,202 --> 00:13:26,802
Speaker 1: country's stockpile of grain was shrinking by the day. The

178
00:13:26,882 --> 00:13:31,802
Speaker 1: situation was so bad that the USSR was importing wheat

179
00:13:31,842 --> 00:13:36,882
Speaker 1: and rye from the United States. As you can imagine,

180
00:13:37,122 --> 00:13:41,802
Speaker 1: Stalin hated this, so he cooked up a strategy to

181
00:13:41,922 --> 00:13:46,242
Speaker 1: fill every belly in the country with locally grown food.

182
00:13:47,042 --> 00:13:53,122
Speaker 1: The plan collectivization. The state would take over farms and

183
00:13:53,282 --> 00:13:58,442
Speaker 1: all those old school peasants would begin growing food for

184
00:13:58,602 --> 00:14:03,922
Speaker 1: everybody with the stroke of a pen. The government began

185
00:14:04,202 --> 00:14:08,642
Speaker 1: gobbling up farmland. It bought new state of the art machinery.

186
00:14:09,082 --> 00:14:14,002
Speaker 1: It introduced new breeds of high yield, disease resistant crops.

187
00:14:14,722 --> 00:14:19,322
Speaker 1: But there was one problem. Many of the farmers refused

188
00:14:19,442 --> 00:14:20,642
Speaker 1: to join the fight.

189
00:14:22,282 --> 00:14:26,802
Speaker 4: There was sort of a systemic depression among farmers. Now

190
00:14:26,842 --> 00:14:29,642
Speaker 4: they were working for Stalin, not for themselves.

191
00:14:30,722 --> 00:14:36,162
Speaker 1: That's Gary Paul Naban. He's an agricultural ecologist, conservationist, and

192
00:14:36,362 --> 00:14:41,042
Speaker 1: past winner of a MacArthur Genius Grant. He describes Stalin's

193
00:14:41,042 --> 00:14:45,442
Speaker 1: push for collectivization this way. Imagine you live on a

194
00:14:45,482 --> 00:14:49,802
Speaker 1: farm that's been in your family for generations. You know

195
00:14:49,962 --> 00:14:52,362
Speaker 1: the land inside and out.

196
00:14:52,722 --> 00:14:55,442
Speaker 4: They have a pride in taking care of their land.

197
00:14:55,922 --> 00:15:00,482
Speaker 4: They have motivations for working hard to produce crops, both

198
00:15:00,522 --> 00:15:02,282
Speaker 4: for their own food and for others.

199
00:15:03,322 --> 00:15:06,602
Speaker 1: And now suddenly the government is handing you seeds and

200
00:15:06,682 --> 00:15:10,602
Speaker 1: give you quotas, and you can't even keep the spoils.

201
00:15:11,482 --> 00:15:16,922
Speaker 1: Farmers didn't take the news well, especially the most powerful peasants,

202
00:15:17,282 --> 00:15:21,442
Speaker 1: a class of farmers called the Kulos. They simply ignored

203
00:15:21,642 --> 00:15:26,522
Speaker 1: Stalin's demands. When Stalin realized that the Kulaks were resisting,

204
00:15:26,962 --> 00:15:31,642
Speaker 1: he didn't respond with a sternly written letter. He responded

205
00:15:31,842 --> 00:15:36,882
Speaker 1: by promising, and I quote, to liquidate the Kulos as

206
00:15:36,962 --> 00:15:44,962
Speaker 1: a class. Police swooped onto Kulock farms. Around five million

207
00:15:45,042 --> 00:15:50,682
Speaker 1: would be arrested, deported sent to prison camps. Untold numbers

208
00:15:50,762 --> 00:15:57,682
Speaker 1: were killed. Turns out exterminating your most successful farmers is

209
00:15:57,722 --> 00:16:01,762
Speaker 1: a bad idea.

210
00:16:02,722 --> 00:16:05,442
Speaker 2: That's all for today. Again, you want to email the

211
00:16:05,482 --> 00:16:09,922
