Interesting subject flippantly done!
I'm a bit disappointed with this podcast. I just started listening on a "binge" basis, so maybe it will improve. It could be an interesting subject but there is too much "cute" banter between the hosts that apparently detracts from the researching of facts. Sorry if it seems I'm nitpicking, but facts are important, especially in history. I liked the use of Richard Posner's defense of the Electoral College.
