The Richard Nixon Experience
Housekeeping segment about the upcoming shows for the next two weeks
This is a brief introduction to our format for the next two weeks of podcast episodes. We had a storytelling issue because the events covered were things that occurred simultaneously on opposite sides of the world. We broke them apart in order to not leave you confused as these events unfolded. We also decided to change the order which led to a small error in a show that aired earlier this week concerning President Nixon's overseas trip. That episode will air next week.
As important as President Nixon's mission was in his final overseas trips in 1974 , I actually found finding material on the trips fairly difficult. So to supplement that episode we thought we would also examine two people who have had an enormous impact on the world, Fritz Kraemer and Anatoly Dobrynan. One has impacted conservative thought in foreign policy for a half century and counting, and the other was a vitally important figure in Soviet Union - American relations for nearly two decades of the Cold War.
We will cover this and the Supreme Court arguments in the case of the United States vs Richard Nixon over the next two weeks. We hope it will give you a sense of the gravity of this time period and its events on both world events and the history of our nation here at home.
