Today's TALK JAM episode features Susan telling a story (again!)... this time about the battle of the Exodus (a barely-seaworthy boat) to bring concentration-camp survivors and their families to what was then Palestine (later the state of Israel) in 1947, at a time when the British ruled over Palestine and bent over backwards to accommodate the Arabs in the region... This incredible battle, documented in Leon Uris's epic novel EXODUS, finally broke the British policy to keep survivors behind barbed wire in refugee camps and led, inexorably, to the founding of a new (old) nation.The novel EXODUS also led to a major defamation suit by a man mentioned in the book as having performed medical experiments in the camps on prisoners. This great story of THEIR epic battle, which could have destroyed Uris's career, is chronicled in Leon Uris's QBVII (Queen's Bench VII), where the case was argued. Both novels are incredibly good reading; find them and read them if you can!!Our Political Talk today discusses the meaning of the word 'coattails' in political terms--what does it mean, how do politicians use it, and is it really helpful? Also a quick history lesson on the only President (Zachary Taylor) who refused to be sworn in on a Sunday, and how a politician whose term had expired MAY have been president for 24 hours; and a brief take on a new Congresswoman from Florida, who will have a special flag outside her office door... Today's episode is brought to you by the audiobook version of STEALING FIRE, the Broadway love story by Susan Sloate, read by Mapuana Makia:https://www.amazon.com/Stealing-Fire/dp/B08JTS6RNFLink for EXODUS on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Exodus-Leon-Uris-ebook/dp/B01N65HQI8/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;qid=1610145694&amp;sr=1-1Link for QBVII on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/QB-VII-Leon-Uris-ebook/dp/B01MSZ2CEM/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3PFEUN8T0AOB3&amp;dchild=1&amp;keywords=qb+vii&amp;qid=1610145751&amp;s=digital-text&amp;sprefix=QBVII%2Cdigital-text%2C200&amp;sr=1-1Link for EXODUS movie (starring Paul Newman) on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Exodus-Paul-Newman/dp/B00006FDAU/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;keywords=exodus+movie&amp;qid=1610145850&amp;s=movies-tv&amp;sr=1-1
