Everyone knows him for his national parks and big stick diplomacy, but in this series, we dive into Teddy’s war on corporate giants, starting with Standard Oil. Along with Ida Tarbell, the journalist who took on Rockefeller and exposed the dark side of monopolies. Teddy Roosevelt rallied public outrage, shaking Congress, and passing some of the most important consumer protection laws in U.S. history. This isn’t just about oil it's about how journalism, activism, and a president with a spine changed the game. We really enjoyed revisiting this series and getting to implement the viewer feedback that Rob had previously only been able to address in Lies.
