Ep. 102: World Wonders, Zebra Attacks, and Joe Exotic

Just about everyone has heard about the ‘Seven Wonders of the World’, at least in some form or fashion. But where did that phrase even come from in the first place? And are there really just seven of these wonders out there? On the latest episode of 4Thirty, Ben and Pat take a trip around the globe discussing some of the greatest sights humanity has ever laid eyes on, from the greatest man-made structures of antiquity, to the most incredible natural formations our world has to offer. The guys also wander their way through some early 20th century U.S. presidential history this week, share a story or two, and, as always, break down some of those wild and whacky news stories that you won’t want to miss. What exactly makes anything a ‘Wonder of the World’? Is the Great Wall of China even a wall in the first place? What’s the background behind the Leaning Tower of Pisa? Are boneless chicken wings just chicken nuggets for grown-ups? For answers to these questions and plenty, plenty more, please give the latest episode of 4Thirty in the Morning a listen!
