It's time to hear about those crazy Whig folks. Henry Clay was one. Abraham Lincoln was one. John Quincy Adams was one. Thomas Jefferson was NOT one.

Political corruption and collusion didn't happen back in the good ole' days did it? Everything was perfectly great and no-one ever got paid off, threatened or coerced into anything! Yeah... that's how it went.

Alexander Hamilton is one of our favorite guys to talk about... mostly because we've been calling him 'The Wizard of Oz' for about a year!

However, we thought it was about time we call him by his real name and give him the episode he deserves... plus we can't get this dang musical about him out of our head!

Come along with us as we talk about the one guy who arguably had the most influence in presidential elections while never running in one!
