Come to our first ever live show! In Boston, on Friday, September 13th. Tickets are available now!

It's September 3rd. This day in 1901, Vice President Teddy Roosevelt gives remarks in which he refers to his notion that one should "speak softly and carry a big stick."

Jody, Niki, and Kellie discuss where Roosevelt got that phrase, and how it came to really embody American-style imperialism in the first decades of the 20th century. They also touch on other famous presidential quotes.

This Day In Esoteric Political History is a proud member of Radiotopia from PRX.
