This is a very patriotic episode in keeping with the themes of celebration and support for the United States which I espouse and hold dear. Tess joins me to talk about the movie Groundhog Day and how it relates to our lives in these wonderful, wonderful times. During the intro I read a few selections from Jill Lepore's magnum opus THESE TRUTHS: A HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES. Happy fourth of July, everyone!
