Jody, Niki, and Kellie are joined by author A.J. Jacobs, whose new book "The Year of Living Constitutionally" dives into the weird world of our founding document. They discuss the debate over what to call the new leader of the executive branch, and what that signaled about the direction of the new country.
A.J.'s new book is out now! And be sure to check out The Puzzler too!
The book A.J. mentioned is called "For Fear Of An Elective King"
