Happy Independence Day! Today we chat about Independence Day celebrations and early American history.
Shawn recommends The Vanishing American Adulthood by Ben Sasse, the senator from Nebraska. Sasse shares some alarming statistics about how little American adults know about our country's history. We also quiz each other on some American history facts. Do you know the answers?
We share some ideas about how to celebrate Independence day with your family. Our families like to read from historical documents and patriotic poems, such as Paul Revere's Ride.
Finally, we share a couple of entertaining fireworks stories and Independence Day memories. Want to find out what happens when you set off a "sparkler bomb" in the vicinity of a former Navy Seal?
