The 1600 Sessions
Presented by the White House Historical Association
The White House Historical Association presents The 1600 Sessions, a podcast that explores the history, untold stories and personal accounts of America’s most iconic residence and office – The White House. Through conversations with historians and eyewitnesses to history, we open the doors to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue—because it’s not only the President’s House, it’s the People’s House.
