  Dana Rohrabacher: The Man Who Camped Out In Ronald Reagan’s Backyard (Ep. 56)

  Oct 1, 20261h 42m

  Former Congressman and Reagan White House speechwriter Dana Rohrabacher joins Mark Joseph for a remarkable firsthand look at Ronald Reagan—from camping out in Reagan’s backyard as a young supporter to eventually joining him in the White House. Rohrabacher shares personal stories about the man behind the presidency, Reagan’s relationship with Nancy, his faith and character, life inside the White House speechwriting shop, and the lessons he learned from years at Reagan’s side. Rohrabacher also tells the extraordinary inside story of Reagan’s historic “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall” speech—including how the speechwriters fought to get the Berlin Wall language directly into Reagan’s hands despite resistance from senior officials. It’s a candid conversation about Reagan, the Cold War, presidential leadership, and the moments behind the scenes that helped shape history. Reagan: Director’s Cut NOW PLAYING in select theaters!

  Paul Kengor on Writing The Crusader, The Book Behind the REAGAN Movie (Ep. 54)

  Sep 28, 20261h 21m

  Historian and bestselling author Paul Kengor joins the Making REAGAN series to discuss his book The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism , the book that inspired the creation of the REAGAN Movie. Kengor recounts years of research into Reagan’s handwritten letters, speeches, childhood, religious beliefs and relationships with figures including Bill Clark and Pope John Paul II, revealing what he believes many traditional accounts of Reagan have overlooked. Kengor discusses more about the idea of the “Divine Plan” that Reagan and Clark called the “DP,” Reagan’s lifelong optimism, his years as a Rock River lifeguard, and the qualities that shaped his presidency. Kengor also talks about difficult and controversial moments in Reagan’s record, and what Reagan’s approach to leadership and political disagreement might mean in today’s deeply divided America.

  Ed Meese: 30 Years at Ronald Reagan’s Side (Ep. 53)

  Sep 25, 202655 min

  Former U.S. Attorney General Edwin Meese sits down with Mark for a deeply personal conversation in the Making REAGAN series about Ronald Reagan, the man Meese knew and served for decades. From their first meeting after Reagan was elected governor of California to the White House and the final years of Reagan’s life, Meese offers a rare firsthand portrait of the man behind the public image—his character, humor, management style, relationship with Nancy Reagan, political instincts, and the qualities that even his opponents often underestimated. Meese also takes audiences inside some of the defining moments of the Reagan era, including Iran-Contra, the confrontation with the Soviet Union, “Tear Down This Wall,” and Reagan’s evolution on abortion and other major issues. He reflects on Reagan’s approach to leadership, the early signs of Alzheimer’s he personally witnessed, their final meeting, and what he believes history should remember about his longtime friend and president.

Shultz also reflected on his relationship with Ronald and Nancy Reagan, his experiences with the Soviet Union, his years serving in government under President Richard Nixon, the 1986 tax reform effort, and lessons from a lifetime at the highest levels of American public life.
