  • Fourth of July! Time for Fireworks – and Time to Think About Ex-Rep. Felix Grucci!

    Fourth of July! Time for Fireworks – and Time to Think About Ex-Rep. Felix Grucci!
    2025/07/03
    It's the Fourth of July! Which makes now the perfect time to remember this Republican congressman from New York: "Rep. Felix Grucci from New York's 1st district. We probably don't have many fireworks company presidents in Congress. That's how some people might know your name. Tell us about the family business." "Well, the family business is one hundred twenty-five years old and it's been a family business. We've been lighting up the skies and delivering the ooh's and the ah's to millions of people not only around the country but around the world. We’ve done the last five with presidential inaugural, the Brooklyn Bridge centennial, Statue of Liberty and the most recent is the millennium moment here in Washington when we lit up the skies of both the Washington Monument and the reflecting pool and the Lincoln Memorial. It was quite an exciting evening." That was freshman Congressman Felix Grucci on C-SPAN in November 2000. How long did Representative Grucci last in Congress? And why think of him during the Fourth of July Weekend? Find out in the latest episode of C-SPAN's podcast "The Weekly." Find C-SPAN's "The Weekly" wherever you get podcasts.

  • Fourth of July, America 250, Presidents — And Time Capsules

    Fourth of July, America 250, Presidents — And Time Capsules
    2025/06/26
    Time capsules! America is full of them ... and for America 250, Congress is even creating a new one. For this year's Fourth of July holiday, C-SPAN's podcast "The Weekly" presents a time capsule of its own. The contents: What American presidents have said about time capsules — or even put in time capsules. Like pictures of themselves. Here's what Senate historian Don Ritchie once told C-SPAN: "I was present in 1976 when we actually opened a safe that was essentially a time capsule that had given to the government in 1876. And President Ford came to the Capitol just before the Bicentennial, and opened the safe, we had no idea what was inside, there were pictures of Rutherford B. Hayes and his wife and other items that were donated at the time of the first centennial." Which other presidents have included pictures of themselves in time capsules? And what else have they put in? Find out in C-SPAN's "The Weekly." Because if you're celebrating the Fourth of July — and gearing up for America 250 — you'll want to hear all about American history, the American presidency — and time capsules.
