Bob, Ben, and Ian sit down to discuss what they’ve been reading, what they’ve learned so far from making The Road To Now, and what aspects of history they’ve found to be most interesting in light of recent events. They also follow up on a few points they discussed in their conversation with Jefferson Cowie (Episode 70), and Ben explains how Bob’s insights helped him better understand the current state of politics.

This is the first time we’ve recorded an episode without a guest since Bob and Ben recorded episode #1 of The Road to Now in the basement of Bridgestone Arena on May 6, 2016. We’ve come a long way since then, and we’re thankful that our listeners have helped us sustain this podcast.
