How do we decide who gets to craft the story of us? And what is the weirdest fringe thing that you have personally encountered? [36:54]

This week, special guest Osei Kwakye joins Joey and Jess to talk about The 1619 Project, cultural literacy, the Cold War and civil rights, experimental archeology, meat glue, and the counter-fringe. Sadly, they don’t talk about Bronies.
