History Bitten [with Rick Green] || CIAS #25

Comedian Rick Green (The Frantics), co-creator of The Red Green Show and the creator of History Bites, is on the show to share his experience of trying to make pop history for television. We also talk a little Red Green, a little neo-fascism, and a little neurodivergence. We think one of those things is bad, to be clear.
