Episode description

America at 250 years old may need a new founding document. Historian Heather Cox Richardson drafts a new social contract.

This show was edited by Kasia Broussalian, fact checked by Esther Gim, mixed by Shannon Mahoney, video edited by Christopher Snyder, and hosted by Astead Herndon. In this episode, Richardson references a tweet of Boebert's, not a text.
