Huh
Love these podcasts. Learn much from them. Thank you.
A renissance man ahead of his time 🎉❤🙏🏻🐘🇺🇸
Thank you for posting this, I meant to circle back and watch. I have a 1961 monograph on Prince Hall and a mass bay court case, I need to dig it out and follow up on that author's work. A scholar told me they had never gotten hold of it so I bought a print.
Wonderful video! Thank you. Hope thathe tubenclosing the ball weights was removed. Sorry that Jefferson could not afford a tuned carillon bell rather than that dull gong.
Why are _both_ doors required to be manually opened if there's the pulley system, which clearly works (mostly) to close both doors via the manual operation of only one door?
It's been several years, but I have absolutely no memory of those doors from our tour. I remember the clock, the narrow stairs, and the wine dumbwaiters, but nothing about doors.
Not impressed.
Jefferson was ahead of his time! 😀 I look forward to visiting in the near future.
Stop being woke we want to hear about Thomas Jefferson not his slaves praise Jesus!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Wow! Come install those doors in my house!
Excellent
Thank you so much for going to the trouble of making this podcast. It is wonderful. 😊
For those disparaging the mask. Jefferson was very interested in public health, medicine and science. He was instrumental in the development of an improved smallpox vaccine championed its use. He would certainly have worn a mask and been one of the first in line for a Covid vaccine. So this is perfectly in character for the worldwide pandemic that was raging at the time of this recording.
I enjoyed and appreciated this podcast very much! Thank you so much for making it. :-) Hearing about the state of medical practices back in Jefferson's day makes me very thankful that medicine has progressed so much. The modern medical world may not be perfect but it's infinitely better than it used to be!!!
no wait WHAT i didn't understand
Thank you
This was a fantastic episode and I enjoyed it very much
Apparently, I'm the only one here😑
The world economy rides on the back of modern day slavery. This video was aided by it.
Brilliant.
A popular saying: History is written by the winners. However... History written by the winners may not be objective. There is always some nonzero degree of subjectivity in any and all versions of History. 10 witnesses of some historical event: 10 separate versions of the Truth about said historical event. History of country X written by the citizens of X tends to be mythologized. Mythologizing is inevitable when the adult citizens want to raise their children to be good citizens of country X: country X is glorious!!! country X is magnificent!!! All sales pitch of any kind have a degree of untruth: overplay the good and underplay the bad. Mythologizing is a barrier to solving country X's problem. Mythologizing makes difficult the uncovering of the inconvenient Truth. Proper diagnosis before proper therapy. Do not expect the proper diagnosis to be good news. Do not expect the proper diagnosis to be hopeful bad news.
Why is she telling the story? This is a JOKE.
Nice presentation, Charles. Educational and informative.
Awesome video
Great video!!
Jefferson beat his horse so savagely in Phila., the people were horrified. awful.
Thank you for this video. I am visiting in a week, however I will not be arriving in time to experience this beauty. Looking forward to my visit.
A bunch of left-wing woke propaganda in the name of Jesus!!
while they still have historians?
That garden must smell wonderful on summer mornings!
So I’m in elementary school(4th) and we are going to Monticello 24h.. we have to get to school be&one school actually starts
Mr. Jolen Bain looks as if he could have been TJ's son 🙂!
You know how many slaves he had I’m not buying this once so ever
In a sea of garbage, this video is a diamond in the rough.
looking forward to seeing you
"Thomas Jefferson enslaved over 600 human beings throughout the course of his life. 400 people were enslaved at Monticello; the other 200 people were held in bondage on Jefferson's other properties. At any given time, around 130 people were enslaved at Monticello."
No one cares his slaves didn't matter then and they don't matter now praise Jesus!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you so very much.
People don't visit Monticello to stare at gardens. They go to learn more about, and to feel connected to, the great American Founder, Thomas Jefferson. A man held in contempt by the people who run Monticello.
Burr doesn't know if Jefferson made a deal or not because he wasn't in the room where it happens, the room where it happens, the room where it happens....
Monticello annual pass holder here. We live a few miles from the Shenandoah National Park. We love each visit as well learn more about Monitcello's, Jefferson's, and America's history. Thanks for this!
Wow I can totally tell that Amanda’s children will grow up to be beautiful women. I wonder where they are now??
i heard one is at the coast guard academy serving her nation!
Thomas Jefferson during covid
While not kept alive and active, it is reborn as a monument to him, and he did see himself as a god, and to something like a temple to him buy people who nearly think of him that way, his home, and also to him, a temple in D.C. of the Roman temple to all there gods, just for him alone. May be why he likes the dome?
How wonderful to be "sitting" in a vegetable garden at Monticello and seeinng the gardeners working. The wonders of modern technology!!! 🙂 I love Thomas Jefferson and his beloved Monticello so much!
I love this video. Excellent idea! Thank you so much for making it. I love visiting Monticello. The guides are all super excellent. Same with the people even at the entrance and the ticketing area. Everyone is so happy and helpful.
This is a great video. Thank you so much for making it. We are so fortunate to be able to visit Monticello today.
Wow, thank you so much for putting this video together. It's a treat to see the dawn view from Monticello on a beautiful sunny morning, without having to spend money on an airfare. 🙂 Monticello is such a special place.
I really enjoyed this. I really wish I could get my hands on Mr. Heming's recipe. Sounds like he could have been a hophead.
As a former Monticello employee, I knew that answer. Mr. Jefferson loved PEAS.
