Using History to Make Sense of Today

GenXer Joe Lanning and I sit down and reminisce about growing up in Yucca Valley/Joshua Tree and why we left as soon as we could, share our love for living in different states, and discuss his experience with history in his undergrad and postgrad academic studies to take a look at events of today along with some Monty Python. This was recorded a few days after the events that occurred at the capitol building in Washington D.C., the capital of the United States.
