<p>Find HISTORY This Week wherever you listen to podcasts!</p><br><p>February 23, 2005. New York City's culinary elite gather at Gotham Hall. Tuxedoed waiters pass around champagne flutes and decadent hors d'oeuvres, as famous chefs like Eric Ripert and Anthony Bourdain pose for photos and gossip with their peers before the night’s main event: an announcement that could change their lives and the fate of America's dining scene.</p><br><p>Édouard Michelin takes the stage. His company, Michelin, is one of the world's largest manufacturers of tires, but they also produce a restaurant guide that has dictated the fortunes of European restaurants for over 100 years. Now, the Michelin Guide, and its coveted stars, will be coming to America.</p><br><p>When Michelin descends on New York City, which restaurants win? Which lose? And how does the battle itself transform American food culture?</p><br><p>Special thanks to Peter Esmond, the former general manager of Per Se and current sales leader at DoorDash; Eric Ripert, chef of Le Bernardin in New York City; and Kathleen Squires, a food and travel writer whose work appears in the Wall Street Journal, Conde Nast Traveler and more.</p><br><p>To stay updated: <a href="historythisweekpodcast.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">historythisweekpodcast.com</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

<p>This is a brand-new episode from HISTORY This Week, available wherever you listen to podcasts!</p><br><p>September 16, 1968. Richard Nixon isn't exactly seen as a comedian. But tonight, he's trying to change that by appearing on Laugh-In, a TV show similar to Saturday Night Live. Nixon needs every vote he can get in the 1968 election, facing off against Hubert Humphrey, the vice president who became the Democratic nominee after Lyndon Johnson withdrew from the ticket.</p><br><p>Nixon's Laugh-In appearance is a surprise, but soon, he'll pull off a move that no one would ever expect. How did back-channel dealings, unattended teleprompters, and Oval Office shouting matches turn this election into an all-time drama? And what do recently uncovered conversations reveal about how far Nixon was willing to go to secure victory?</p><br><p>Special thanks to David Farber, professor of history at the University of Kansas and author of <a href="https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/C/bo3617456.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Chicago ‘68</em></a>; Lawrence O’Donnell, host of The Last Word With Lawrence O’Donnell on MSNBC and author of <a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/536119/playing-with-fire-by-lawrence-odonnell/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Playing with Fire: The 1968 Election and the Transformation of American Politics</em></a>; and Luke Nichter, professor of history at Chapman University and author of <a href="https://yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300280135/the-year-that-broke-politics/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>The Year That Broke Politics: Collusion and Chaos in the Presidential Election of 1968</em></a>.</p><br><p>To stay updated: <a href="https://cms.megaphone.fm/organizations/534d8f6e-0936-11e9-b74a-77a3994a777a/podcasts/e0fb863a-1cf0-11ef-861b-43fdc2213134/episodes/af7abcd2-21cf-11ef-b31e-9f3bdb1fb90a/historythisweekpodcast.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">historythisweekpodcast.com</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
