Jeanne Hoffman talks with Dr. Bill Glod and Dr. Phil Magness about some wacky academics from history. Dr. Glod profiles J.J. Smart, a philosopher who denied the existence of time and took great delight in "outsmarting" his critics, while Dr. Magness shines the light on our national skeleton in the closet - drunken founding father Luther Martin.
