The Gray Area: Is America collapsing like ancient Rome?

The CAFE team is taking a break from our usual programming this week to share another show we think you might like.  It’s a show called “The Gray Area,” hosted by Sean Illing, that explores issues across culture, technology, politics, and the world of ideas, all through a philosophical lens.  In the episode we’re about to share, Sean Illing and his guest, historian Edward Watts, discuss how America today feels a lot like ancient Rome…right before its empire collapsed.  We hope you enjoy their conversation.
