Brad,you are a hero of mine for embracing the late Paul Harvey and his "The Rest of the Story". You have elected upon yourself to reach back in time and replay these wonderful radio shows as if they were originally aired and adding to them a bit after each one. Thank You Brad Dison for doing this so beautifully. Mr. Harvey would be honored. Thank You.

Columbus definitely deserves to be remembered. In fact, your "the rest of the story" of what happened to him in his later years should also be taught.

He certainly has a place in our history 😀

We need to remember.

Columbus was a pioneer and should be remembered for his bravery. I believe the story about one of the only ships to survive the hurricane was filled with Columbus’s gold speaks about God's justice.

I've never been accused of keeping close track of current events. It's mostly trash news. And so, I didn't get the relationship between Floyd and Columbus. 🤔 That said, I DID learn a ton of things regarding Mr. Columbus. So I thank you for that, Mr. Dison!

Don't EVEN get me started on my feelings about Floyd rioter's (BLM), the looting, havoc, disrespect, destruction of properties, etc.

I had no idea about that much info about Columbus. Thank you for all you do for us and your videos. Wonderful teaching Brad. chuckles

This shows that learning bits and pieces of the story means not knowing the whole story. Here are a few more bits and pieces to fit into the puzzle. Thank you, Brad. Edited to add: just bought your "Remember This" books!

"The natives are revolting!" 'Well, a bit offensive perhaps...' Sorry. Couldn't resist. 😅

That was sooo informative! Thanks 😊

Weather it’s Good or bad we need to remember our history. We need to learn it and learn from it. The truth is always the best way to go. We need to remember Columbus.

I'd be content calling this the United States of Columbia. USC! Great video

Of course ... remember him.

In some ways, this story resembles present day... Perhaps we should be careful of "The Coming Hurricane"...

Sad!

History should never be erased. It’s what made us who we are today. Changing history erase our memories and make everything better

A person much wiser than me said if we fail to learn our history we doom ourselves to repeat the mistakes of prior generations.

Timing is eary, 25 major hurricanes predicted this season and that's not to mention the metaphorical ones...

I would not try to erase history.

Columbus's legacy is certainly complicated. And controversial. His story was perhaps inflated out of ethnic Italian pride, since Columbus was often thought to be Genoese. I read a recent historian who thinks he was actually Catalan, and working under an alias. He's sometimes been described as the only one among his contemporaries who realized the earth is round, but educated people since at least Hellenistic times have known the earth is round, and Eratosthenes got a good estimate of the earth's circumference in the third century BC. Columbus (reputedly) claimed the earth is actually much smaller, in order to claim a viable western route to the Indies. The consequences of his discoveries were dramatic: Spain quickly built an empire by conquest, becoming very wealthy in the process. The natives living in the areas they claimed were mostly enslaved. Columbus had a role in that. Diseases brought from Europe decimated native populations, including populations who had no contact with the Spanish. It hardly seems fair to blame Columbus, or Europeans generally, for epidemics. There's a lot more to Columbus, both good and bad, than can be encapsulated in a class for elementary schools. He doesn't seem a particularly American hero, any more than Cortez or Pizzaro. There may be better candidates for statues in American cities. But demolishing statues by vandalism is unworthy.

History is not erased, it may be papered over temporarily, as this video demonstrates. And put those statues back.

Christopher Columbus was led by God to the new world. It was time for us to begin the transition here. I just wish that we could have good things stay good.

Interesting story……..oh, you might wanna choose your words a bit more carefully…..Floyd was not murdered. 😐

Put fake 20 dollars bills on a flag with George on the face 😢
