S8 Ep06 "It's A Wonderful Life with Jimmy Hawkins”
This all blowing air but not talking about the book because I want you to buy the book. stupid
Primo was the Heavyweight Champion of the world in 1933. The people of Italy loved him, so did many Americans. Primo lost his title to Max Baer in 1934. Primo was knocked down 12-times, but despite that Primo kept getting up. He was not knocked out by Baer, the fight was stopped by the ref. in the 12th round. Primo was not only the Heavyweight Champion, he had the "heart" of a Champion, very few Champions ever have the gamesmanship that Primo had. There were many critics of Primo, but Primo had more character in his little finger than his critics had in their whole body. Sleep well Primo, you were a better man than your detractors were. The more I read about Primo the more I like him.
I remember a quote from this young man when he spoke about this event that i just want to address. "I walked passed dozens of people when I set out onto the bridge to jump. Not one person stopped me. Not one. That told me that nobody truly cared if i lived or died. Until this officer just stood and listened." This is so important. If you don't believe in a worldly protector... you should. Because if anyone stopped him... he wouldn't have gotten help. He would have just went home and came back a different day. His hero was today. The world sent someone to truly save his life and today was the only day he was abailable to do it. Every person that let you by... contributed in saving your life. Because if they interfered... you'd be dead. Im glad youre alive.
A great interview about a great man. Long overdue!
Trying to be a better person chimes with me. Buell is someone i can identify with. He speaks well of Lee. A refreshing counter to all the negatives flying around.
The Gardino Brothers are wonderful; both true native sons of NYC, born and raised in Hell's Kitchen. The brothers make their book, Grave Trippers, interesting, informative, and fun. I learned so much. Great reading. loved it. I hope you too will accept the kind invitation from Vincent and Robert to take that Trip with them. You will not be disappointed!
Grazie Boia!!!!
A fun and informative 55 minutes. Vincent and Robert share their hobby of grave tripping with lots of facts and a passion that is captivating.
Great incite into a period of US history that's not well known. Mike's conversation with James is entertaining and very informative.
I am a descendant of Charles de Langlade. I just went to where he was reburied today. I walked where he lived and around the different creeks when he was a fur trader.
Incredibly interesting interview Tim is so knowledgeable and a passionate historian. 👏
Jefferson Davis was the son of law of future President Zackary Taylor through Davis’ first wife who died shortly after being married. Small world.
Great job James, Kelly, and Katie!!
Absolutely fascinating!!! Can't wait to read your book. Such a different take on genealogy. A good book for a genealogy club that is trying to write a good story about their families as well.
Wonderful!
An incredible and insightful interview. His story has finally come to light thanks to his son Robert. Many thanks to him!
Thanks! Buell tells his story so well, it was a pleasure and an honor to have him as our guest.
Fantastic authentic interview. Buel can really make you feel like you were there with him as he tells his story
Absolutely! Thanks for listening!
I moved to Aberdeen four months ago, and I learned about this only two days ago. I had no idea. I am very interested in these events.

We loved to hate Nellie. What a good actress.
Love Little House
A fabulous, inspiring story...thanks for sharing
Another Great Episode. Tafts letter & TR resentments gave us President Wilson great story
Fascinating!! Jeff brings the spectacular history of the building of the Brooklyn bridge to life and I learned a lot. I always heard that during the pouring of one of the footings a team of horses and a few men were encased in the concrete. It was not mentioned during the interview so it may be folklore.
Thank you for listening!
Tremendous fan of the great Primo who earned the title
Very interesting thank you 🙏
You’re welcome & thank you for listening to Your History Your Story!
Thank you for a wonderful podcast of the Brooklyn of my childhood. It was thoroughly and beautifully done with the discussion of our childhood.
Thank you Martin! We’re glad you enjoyed listening. Please feel free to share it with others 😊
@@YHYSPodcast I have shared with my sister and she loved it too.
I think you should have delve into his life more when it came to the war, because Schmeling and him were friends and spoke to each other. Schmeling had to deal with the Nazis interfering with his foreign relations. Otherwise lovely interview.
Thank you for listening and sharing your thoughts.
@@YHYSPodcast My pleasure.
Enjoyed this interview, really good stuff. His granddaughter Anne interviewed very well, she was excellent!!
Thank you for listening!
Fascinating story with so much detail . My intrigue for sharks started in 1975 with the movie JAWS which mentions this story
What an amazing, heartfelt story. Great interview!
How can you not love a story about a man and his dog. Great book, just got done with it.
I follow Charlie and his words resonate with me. I've never heard anyone able to negate anything he says.
I’ll be looking for Charlie’s other podcasts. He blew me away with this. Love YHYS podcast
Thank you!
