Cardinal News 250
“Cardinal News 250” tells the little-known stories of Virginia’s role in our country’s march to independence. As we head toward America’s 250th anniversary in 2026, we examine the events, people and places that shaped the Commonwealth and the nation—beyond what’s in the history books. Cardinal News publishes “Cardinal 250” features at least once a month; this podcast is made possible in part by funding from the Virginia American Revolution 250 Commission (VA 250).

E11: Age and Our Founding Fathers
When you picture our “founding fathers,” do you picture older white men? Most of us do, but it’s more accurate to picture them as young or middle-aged. In this Cardinal News 250 episode, Dutchie Jessee talks with James Madison University professor Rebecca Brannon about the age of our nation’s founders and why it matters.
