In the eighth episode of the special 10-part season on U.S. Presidents from the 5 Minute Biographies podcast, we examine the life of Martin Van Buren, the eighth President of the United States. A key architect of the Democratic Party and a skilled political strategist, Van Buren's presidency was shaped by the Panic of 1837 and economic challenges. Join us as we explore his political career, his contributions to American party politics, and the complexities of his time in office.
