🎧 What is “Be Your Own Host”?
Have you ever dreamed of sitting down with George Washington, Sybil Ludington, or Benjamin Franklin? The 56 Project’s “Be Your Own Host” feature lets you do just that! Using our app or website, you’ll:
Choose your favorite revolutionary guest
Record a 3-minute podcast episode
Share your questions, curiosity, and creativity with the world
Ask the Questions You’ve Always Wondered:
With your chosen guest, you can explore topics like:
- What was life really like in 1776?
- How does the world today compare to the 18th century?
- Who got along—and who didn’t—among the 56 signers?
- What did people eat in colonial America? What were their favorite meals?
- How did they feel signing the Declaration of Independence?
You can even ask light-hearted or silly questions—like how much easier midnight rides would have been with a Vespa scooter or what they’d think of social media!
How It Works:
Select Your Guest – Pick from dozens of historical figures including signers of the Declaration, women of the revolution, or ordinary citizens of Philadelphia.
Plan Your Questions – We’ll provide guides to help you get started, or you can write your own!
Record Your Podcast – Using our easy tools, record your 3-minute interview right from your device.
Share & Learn – Save your episode, share it with your class, friends, or family, and discover what others are asking too!
Why Podcasting Makes History Personal
History is more than dates and documents—it’s made of people who lived, dreamed, and made choices that changed the world. By creating your own podcast episode, you get to experience the past, not just memorize it.
