Manage episode 315995274 series 3207083
Is it possible that we take politics too seriously? How should we as individuals respond to partisan politics and national-level political feuds? This week, Dennis examines these questions, leaning on four decades of experience in local, state, and national politics. Next, Dennis and Ken (the Brown Sign Brothers From Boise) discuss their visit to the Herbert Hoover Presidential Library in West Branch, Iowa - one of the oldest presidential libraries in the country. Next, in the Entertainment portion of the show, Dennis looks at some of the oddest musicians who have played together on stage (Justin Timberlake getting booed off stage while playing with the Rolling Stones?!) During the Fun History / Odd Facts finale, Dennis touches on the origins of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, as well as presidential love of baseball.
