Our American Stories

439

Our American Stories tells stories that aren’t being told. Positive stories about generosity and courage, resilience and redemption, faith and love. Stories about the past and present. And stories about ordinary Americans who do extraordinary things each and every day. Stories from our listeners about their lives. And their history. In that pursuit, we hope we’ll be a place where listeners can refresh their spirit, and be inspired by our stories.

    Good God.
    Great show, but the goddamn ads, man. Intolerable.
  • 6th Chick

    Too many ads!
    Once again, iHeart Radio ruins the experience with excessive advertisements.

    Three stooges
    I love all of your shows! This one was very nostalgic for me, though. Stooges, Roy Rogers, and the Lone Ranger after school. Cracked me up with the “Slowly I Turned… Step by Step… We used to do that all the time. Hilarious 🤪😆
  • We interrupt
    Great stories. Too many commercials.
    Why are we asked to donate to a podcast that is already overrun with commercial sponsors?

    To Build a Fire, Jack London
    “Here to narrate the finally of the book? Uh……..just read the last pages of the book? That seems kindo dupid.

    A Hidden Treasure
    I heard an interview on Dennis Prager podcast with Lee Habeeb a month ago. I gave Our American Stories a try, then I went back to February 2021 (possibly when it started), and now am addicted to these stories. So well done and so diverse in subject matter. Highly recommend this to anyone and everyone. Thank you Lee Habeeb!

    Disappointed
    I’m a bit disappointed with this show, I listened to their episode about Kasserine Pass and found it informative but slow. Lots of adverts, and little insight in a short introduction.
  • Constantinus411
    Really?!
    I’ve listened to this show on and off. It has something worth listening to, and some not so much. Funny enough, if I skip ahead to the end and hear what producer did the piece, I can usually tell whether it will be good or not. This latest (as of this review) piece on “Were the Irish the 1st Slaves in America?”… WOW! The pair on whoever greenlit this one… I can guess where this producer lies politcally, but I’d also hope someone would have maybe listened to this one ahead of time and maybe think it was territory worth treading? What an unnecessary piece of drivel.

    Good but full of commercials
    Interesting (listened to my first episode), but in an 18 min episode heard 3 rounds of ads several min long each. Sorry I’m outta here.

    Love our country? You’ll love this podcast!!
    I stumbled upon this podcast and I am so glad. I have learned about Abraham Lincoln, I have learned about Spam, I have learned about the radium girls and each story is a little bit of americana. I heartily recommend this podcast to you and encourage you to take a listen.

    Celebrating the good
    Too often, I fill my head with stories of what’s wrong with the world; this show is a rare chance to focus on the people and events where the best parts of our country shine bright. So glad I stumbled upon your program!!

    My Go To
    I enjoy listening to crime oriented podcast quite a bit. When combined with our daily news and happenings around the world, it can leave a person with a heavy heart. This podcast is my go to when I want to lighten my mood and remember that all is not lost…there is still good in the world and much of it is right here in my own country. Keep up the good work!!

    A Refreshing Break
    The stories I hear on this podcast help restore my faith in the goodness of the people of our country. It is a refreshing break from the negativity of the 24-hour news cycle and from the ugliness of social media. It brings down my blood pressure and makes me smile and maybe cry a bit too. Not all of the stories are just feel good stories but they reflect the best and sometimes the worst of humanity, but also give you hope when you see lives turn around.
  • fairhful mommy
    My favorite!
    I absolutely love listening to our American stories podcasts on my phone while I exercise or week night’s on KTRH news radio while getting ready for bed. The stories will teach you about history, beautiful nonfiction stories about real people’s lives that we all can relate to- you will laugh ...you will cry ...you will be in awe! As a full-time working mom, it is “my time” to learn as well as renew my faith in humanity.

  • Rct56
    Just found this series - it is awesome
    I don’t watch much tv except for the weather - it is because I’m tired of the negative tripe. America is a wonderful country with millions of good people. This series tells their stories.

    It’s refreshing to hear these wonderful true stories without the influence of politics, it’s history and I’m capable of reading between the lines myself. Keep up the good work, these stories will survive the generations, and enrich all who read, or, in my case, hear them.

    Learning history not in schools
    Far more interesting than school teachers ever made history to be, and the bonus is there’s no politics.

    Best Podcast
    Like TAM but without the politics 🔥🔥🔥
  • Xxcherie
    Thank you
    My first introduction to the show was listening to the 9/11 tribute. I’ve never cried so hard in public. And while that may not sound like a glowing review, the honest truth is this is a podcast full of inspiration and determination. Sacrifice and love. The stories of our fellow Americans teaches us something we may have forgotten in ourselves-that although we are all so different, we’re all living the American dream.
  • Wild.Iron
    Excellent!
