About this listen

 *TOP 10% GLOBAL PODCAST* Are you concerned about what your school system is teaching your children? Of what might happen when your children and grandchildren leave the good influences of hearth and home and ship off to school or university? You have reason to be concerned. For our noble and great ones from America’s illustrious past are being condemned and cancelled by nearly all of America’s once great schools and universities. I’m Rick Robison. Husband, father, grandfather, Veterans Hospital Volunteer, historian, and former intel officer. But most of all concerned patriot seeing our once exceptional nation being “fundamentally transformed” from within. “History must be judged strenuously and within historical context.” Please join with us in our quest to shine the light of truth on America’s glorious past. To honor America’s heroes and heroines. For without them, our world today would be a dark and despotic place, one we would not recognize. For “Not to know what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child. For what is the worth of a human being unless it be woven into the life, the mosaic, of our ancestors” (Marcus Tullius Cicero). To leap with both feet into such a vital adventure requires that we gather, but more so, harness, the stories of our illustrious heroes and heroines. To do that successfully we must place them within a comprehendible historical setting. This takes work, my friends. This is the “why” of the HEROES FOR FREEDOM Podcast Series. Its purpose and mission. With a passion we’ve done the heavy lifting. Transporting you back in time to experience what it was like standing shoulder-to-shoulder with history’s noble and great ones, as they rose to save our world…yet, too often sacrificing life and limb. Freely offering their “last full measure of devotion” in our behalf. The 100 Indispensable Heroes of American History. An entertaining, fast-moving ride we guarantee will thrill you, right down to the often-shocking finish! Each story provides proof of why, and how, these heroes are heroes, saving our nation, our world, and our way of life. Please join with me each week immersing yourself in our unique and entertaining “HEROES FOR FREEDOM” Podcast Series. Walk in their footsteps. Witness through their eyes how these genuine, honest, everyday people helped save our world! In this I guarantee that you, but more so your children, will rekindle a passion for life, suddenly seeing the potential this great, God-centered land offers every honest, hardworking seeker after truth.

    39 - "THE LITTLE LADY WHO STARTED THIS GREAT WAR" | Harriet Beecher Stowe (Author) | Civil War
    Aug 13 2025

    President Abraham Lincoln, when meeting Harriet Beecher Stowe for the first time was reported to have said to her, with a twinkle in his eyes: “So you’re the little lady who started this great war.”

    And she did, writing the first million-plus selling American novel—UNCLE TOM'S CABIN—about a kind and Christ-like slave named “Tom,” the novel showing graphically the brutalities of slavery during the harsh days of the Fugitive Slave Act, the years running up the American Civil War, a period that nearly saw the destruction of our country.

    Our hero, Harriet Beecher Stowe and her novel had a powerful influence upon the conscience of America. The novel’s historical impact grabbed a sleeping nation and shook it awake, helping start a war that would not only unite America and make it stronger, but more so, end the institution of slavery once and for all.

  • 38 - THE ALAMO'S DIVINE SECRET | The Battle of the Alamo | 1836

    38 - THE ALAMO'S DIVINE SECRET | The Battle of the Alamo | 1836
    Aug 6 2025

    Too often today the Alamo is depicted as a bunch of American white-supremacists who oppressed the local population, hoping to “steal Mexican lands.”

    This is tiring, simplistic, and woefully unfair. History rewritten.

    Settlers in Texas were promised freedom and independence by the Mexican Government. In the spring of 1836, those who fortified the Alamo against the dictator General Santa Anna were patriots, many born and raised in Texas, native sons. And they understood they might not survive yet willingly stayed and fought to the death.

    The Alamo proves the point. Americans will die on their feet rather than live on their knees.

    May we remember the Alamo for what it truly stood for—and stands for today. These were free men and women. Never shackled. Fighting to survive just one more day, struggling to subdue a harsh world and burying their children along the way.

    Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness means everything to Texans as it does to all traditional Americans. It’s God-given. And it’s to die for.

    37 - WASHINGTON'S MIRACLE MAN (Part 3/3) | Col. John Glover (Marblehead Mariners Commander) | Revolutionary War
    Jul 30 2025

    On the Pennsylvanian shore of the Delaware River, Washington conceived a desperate plan—to cross back over the river into New Jersey and attack a Hessian garrison of 1,200 men. The Hessians were German mercenaries fighting for the British.

    Throughout that frigid night, Glover and his Marbleheaders rowed Washington’s Army across the ice-choked river, thought to be an impossible feat and attacked the Hessian Garrison, killing 100 and taking 900 Hessian soldiers as prisoners.

    When the battle ended, General Washington turned to the doctor for his men, General Hugh Mercer, saying: “Hugh, we won a great victory today, but tell me…how many of my boys did I lose? How much did it cost?”

    Dr. Mercer looked at his tired, aging commander, saying: “Sir, we didn’t lose any, only a few wounded.”

    Washington dropped down on a nearby stool, saying softly: “Oh Lord, my God, another miracle for my little army.”

    And there we have Miracle Number 3.
