And what role does he play in the Great Depression that will hit during Hoover? Find out in this week's episode!

It's time to review the president who gambled the White House china and had more affairs than perhaps any other president. It's Warren G Harding time. His cabinet was infamously corrupt, but was he just as crooked? We shall see on this episode of Ranking Presidents.

It's Taft time baby. We are talking about America's favorite president to get stuck a tub. But Taft was more than just a big man, he was also the inheritor of Roosevelt's legacy and busted more trusts than even Teddy. But can he live up to the legacy of Theodore? We shall see. 

We are back with Theodore Roosevelt! This time we are discussing his two terms as President. During his time, he radically expanded the power of the office...but did he do a good job? How effective was he? And...where does the Rough Rider rank?

It's the man, the myth, the legend, ole Teddy Rough Rider Roosevelt himself! Today we are looking at the personality, beliefs and early career of Theodore Roosevelt before he became President. Because for the fourth member of Mt. Rushmore, we are going to need two parts to cover his story!

Say goodbye to the 19th century, it's the 20th century folks and we have our first modern president: William McKinley. Although often remembered as the prequel to Theodore Roosevelt, he left his mark as well with labor policies and the Spanish American War and the birth of American imperialism. He was also assassinated, the second to last American president in history to suffer such a fate. Let's find out more about his presidency and where he ranks!

It's the president who came between two Clevelands! He's probably the least well known of any president, which is a real shame considering all he accomplished. One law he passed is still in effect today! But...where does this Hoosier rank? Find out!

It's Big Steve time. We are talking about Grover Cleveland of course, the only president to serve two non consecutive terms. But did he deserve those terms? And where does he rank?

This president led a fascinating life. Unfortunately his time in office was cut short by an assassin's bullet. Let's explore the life of death of America's second president to be assassinated...and see where he ranks.

Known as his Fraudulency or Rutherfraud, this president came to power during the most contested election in American history. He was the last Reconstruction era President and the first of the Gilded Age. He had to handle corruption, racism and a general strike. How did he handle it? Well....

Today we have a very interesting president, another general everyone knows by name, but usually knows nothing about his presidency. We are talking about Ulysses S. Grant, the man who beat the Confederacy. But can he handle the Presidency? We shall see.

Last week we had Lincoln...now we have...Andrew Johnson, America's "plebian president." Can this VP take up the mantle of Lincoln and handle reconstruction of the defeated southern states? Find out in this week's episode.

It's Lincoln again! This time we are discussing his presidency, the Civil War and his legacy. Does he live up to the hype? Also we have a special guest Matt to talk about the battles, generals and how they related to Lincoln.

At long last, we have made it..to Honest Abe himself. This week we are looking at Lincoln's personality, his religion, his views on slavery and his early political career. There's so much to talk about Lincoln that we won't be ranking him this week. That will have to wait for part 2! In this episode, you'll learn about Abe's sex life, his dislike of religion and his rather....complicated relationship with slavery.

Of all our presidents, Fillmore was one of them. He was Zachary Taylor's VP and would serve out the remainder of his term when he died. He was the president during the infamous Fugitive Slave Act. But is he as bad as history makes him out to be? We shall see!

Are you rough and ready? Zachary Taylor certainly was! He was our nation's second Whig president, the last Whig to be elected as president actually and just like William Henry Harrison, he died before completing his first term. Unlike Harrison, he did manage to get a few things done in his 16 month time in office, mainly tackling the issue of new Western states and slavery. But the real question is: Where does he rank?

Grab your accordions, it's Polk time. We are talking about the president who had set goals when he entered the White House, which included conquering territory from Mexico and handling the slavery issue and he accomplished them all in one term...or so he claimed. Let's see where he ranks.

He's the first VP to take the reigns as president after the current president kicked the bucket. But is he up to the task? Strap in folks, it's John Tyler time.

He was president for 31 days, and our first Whig president and the first to die in office. What were his ideas for the nation? If he had had a chance to perform his presidential duties, would he have been successful? And ultimately where does he rank?
