The last of our "Best of's" for a minute.  We'll be back with new episodes next week.  In the meantime, here's our 2020 "Remembering 911" episode for the anniversary of September 11th.

9/11 changed our world.  Scott  (@sparki1969) and Bob (@bobbuzzanco) had a spirited discussion on the  impact of the events of September 11, 2001.  We offered personal  recollections, talked about the larger historical context in which it  occurred, considered the consequences of the attacks--prolonged Mid-East  wars and heightened repression at home, discussed the way the attacks  and wars were manipulated for "patriotic" reasons, and talked about how  it effects the U.S. today, in the era of Trump.
