What parts of today’s world would freak out folks who lived during the U.S. Civil War? In this first-ever interview-based episode* of the You Are A Weirdo history podcast, we ask a real-life U.S. Civil War historian! Join host Doug Sofer as he chats with Civil War historian Aaron Astor about such topics as today’s professional military, the size and scope of government, air conditioning, sports betting, and college football.
Doug and Aaron also play the inaugural version of a new history game called “Clionic Connections.” Sure, it's a good way to foster a fascinating conversation about history, but it's also an excuse for Doug to play unnecessary sound effects.

* Technically speaking, this one is actually the second overall interview-based episode. The first one from Season One involved someone who's been dead for 124 years or so. You'll have to listen to the intro for details.
