Listen "Peanut Butter and Rawhide Down"
Episode Synopsis
On March 30, 1981, a bullet changed history—and a jar of peanut butter changed my life. In this episode of Dave Does History, I take you back to the surreal day President Reagan was shot, seen not from a D.C. press room, but through the eyes of a seventeen-year-old navigating high school, Navy dreams, and a cantankerous grandfather with strong opinions and crunchy peanut butter ambitions. This isn’t just political history—it’s personal. From kitchen-table arguments to constitutional awakenings, join me for a firsthand account of the day America held its breath, and I began to understand the weight of an oath.
