    with The Will Rogers Memorial Museum

    ⚡️ Today on Jace Sits, we saddle up for a deep-dive with the Will Rogers Memorial Museum to explore how Oklahoma’s favorite son became America’s first “influencer.” Long before social media, Will Rogers captivated the nation with his wit, wisdom, and wide-ranging commentary on politics, culture, and daily life. From Vaudeville to Hollywood to syndicated newspaper columns, he shaped public opinion with charm and authenticity that still resonates today. Join me as we unpack the legacy of this cowboy philosopher and how the museum in Claremore, Oklahoma preserves his voice, vision, and enduring relevance. This episode shines a light on how Rogers’ humor and heart made him a timeless American icon. ⚡️ ⸻ 🔗 Links & Resources Will Rogers Memorial Museum – https://www.willrogers.com Jace – https://linktr.ee/jacesbain 🎙️ Jace Sits is a podcast where history and pop culture collide—bringing you conversations that bridge the past and present.
