My Hair's in the Soup
Manage episode 357687204 series 3456457
It goes like this: mostly you stand on a level platform and the history lays out before you like a Bierstadt mountain landscape, cool, daunting, and full of color. But on the rare occasion the history blows right up your back, hot and gnarly like a Santa Ana wind. The level platform turns over as you watch your hat blow away in the dust. You forget which part is the history and which part was your hat. After the last couple of weeks, on top of the last 10 months, driven by the last four years, guess which one we were feeling for Episode 35? Hint: we called the episode My Hair is in the Soup (thank you Jericho Brown). So join us for some history therapy, as we work through the demons and try to trust the better angels of our American history. Just remember HAG rule #19: that anyone who serves up their sedition with a heavy dose of unity and reconciliation is under no circumstances to be trusted.
