Episode 155 / Room #9: It's Alive

Suggested by special guest, Dr. Beau Breslin.

A "crossover" episode for A Fork In Time and The Room Where It Happened.

The team is joined by Dr. Breslin to discuss his latest book, A Constitution for the Living: Imagining How Five Generations of Americans Would Rewrite the Nation's Fundamental Law.

We explore the premise of his book and the idea of "generational constitutions" as advocated by Thomas Jefferson and set the stage for a series of episodes on A Fork In Time where we will explore the conventions imagined by Beau in his book. The team recommends you get a copy for yourself. It is both an enlightening and entertaining read.

Elizabeth II

On behalf of a certain co-founder of the podcast to recognize the passing of the United Kingdoms's longest reigning monarch and sends our condolences to our oft-visited Isle in its time of grief.

I am sure that A Fork In Time will soon have an episode exploring the "what ifs" of her reign had not been as long and noteworthy.
