Episode 142 - On The Purpose of History

What this episode covers

History may be the class in school that everyone loves to hate, but is it important? Does history have a purpose - and if it does, what is it? And your answer can't be "to make kids suffer in school."This week's prompt finds Townsend and Preacher Man musing on the overall purpose of history but also recognizing each of our personal "parts" and their importance, too. Listen and see if you learn something! Got a question you want answered or a topic you'd like to hear Townsend and Preacher Man muse on?
