About this listen

Luke Nichter is the James H. Cavanaugh Endowed Chair in Presidential Studies at Chapman University, a Visiting Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, and, for 2026-27, a Visiting Research Fellow at the Centre on US Politics at University College London. His area of specialty is the Cold War, the modern presidency, and U.S. political and diplomatic history, with a focus on the "long 1960s" from John F. Kennedy through Watergate – using consequential moments from recent history to better understand contemporary politics. In this episode we will look at what information can be revealed through the Johnson tapes on not only the administration of LBJ but also how the Whitehouse and political sphere ran.
