The Olympics. Philosophy. Big marble statues of naked dudes wrestling. Lots of extraordinary things came from Ancient Greece, Direct Democracy being chief among them. 

Happy 4th of July! Join Steve and Richie as they celebrate American independence in their time honoured tradition, which is to say discussing the history and politics of a different country.
