WPR Episode 21: Team America! Top 10 All Time American Ideals/Culture/Events

Theology on Air

We take a break from our usual White Pill Radio format to have a roundtable conversation on the greatness of America. Sarah, Evan, Ken, and Austin all came up with their own Top 10 lists for unique or favorite things about America that make America 'Merica. Maybe you'll want to come up with your own before listening to theirs? Anyway, in honor of this patriotic time of year, we thought this would be a fun diversion. Also, we posted our lists below to follow along. But don't cheat unless you want to know their lists in advance!
