Before John Quincy Adams became America’s most forgettable president, he was basically a Founding Father Nepo Baby turned globe-trotting prodigy. In this episode, Kyle and Eric dive into JQA’s chaotic and impressive early life—getting inoculated before vaccines were cool, becoming a teenage diplomat fluent in multiple languages, and turning down a seat on the Supreme Court because he “didn’t feel like it.” We’re talking European power moves, Founding Father family drama, and alleged skinny-dipping in colonial streams. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to grow up journaling every historical moment and getting career advice from Ben Franklin, this one’s for you. Hit play to hear why John Quincy Adams peaked way before the White House.
