This week, Evan and Cam sat down with Alex Herbert, PhD candidate in Soviet History and co-host of the Providence Leftist Radio podcast, to discuss the collapse of the Soviet Union. We ended up mostly eschewing our notes and just picking his brain about the period, and it was great. We think you'll agree.

Also, R.I.P. Norm Macdonald.
