Über diesen Titel

American Excellence is celebrated and recognized the world over, but as we approach our nation's 250th Anniversary, do we truly understand the qualities, policies, and people that have made America excellent -- that shining city on the hill? In this podcast, we'll focus on the lives of 250 people -- many forgotten to history -- who shaped our nation and left a lasting legacy of excellence. We'll also cover ideas, qualities, and policies that will continue to build American excellence in the future.

American Excellence with KBB is hosted by Kristi Burton Brown, a constitutional attorney, author of "Do Justice: Practical Ways to Engage Our World," and homeschool mom of three. Kristi was elected in 2021 as the youngest Republican Chairman in Colorado history and the first woman to hold the position in 40 years. Today, she serves as Congressional District 4's representative on the State Board of Education, is a guest radio host, TV panelist, high school debate coach, and the Executive Vice President at a conservative think tank.

  • 250 Americans: Orelena Hawks Puckett
    Jan 1 2026

    On this podcast, you'll meet 250 people from American history. First up...Orelena Hawks Puckett, a midwife from the Appalachian mountains who delivered 1,000 babies successfully. In this poverty-stricken area, death was common in the 1800's and 1900's when Orelena lived. Even though her own life experience was filled with tragedy after tragedy, Orelena spent nearly half a century serving her community with compassion and skill. Reports claim that she never lost a baby or mother under her care.

  • 250 Americans: Dr. Barnett Rosenberg
    Jan 3 2026

    On this podcast, you'll meet 250 people from American history. Up today...Dr. Barnett Rosenberg, a researcher, professor, and doctor who discovered cisplatin -- a chemotherapy treatment that reversed a cancer death rate from 95% to 5%. At a time when using metals in medical treatment was considered an "abomination," Dr. Rosenberg chose to pioneer on anyway, spending twenty years of his life finding, experimenting with, and successfully deploying cisplatin. Today, 10-20% of all cancer patients in the U.S. use cisplatin. Dr. Rosenberg was known for asking the focus to be put on new, younger scientists and their attempts rather than being celebrated himself. He also chose to specifically do the research no one else was willing to conduct and to spend his life saving people from almost certain death.
