Ep 489 - The Public Burning, by Robert Coover

This book is a work of "faction" (that's "fact" plus "fiction") about Richard Nixon's interactions with the physical manifestation(s) of Uncle Sam in the run-up to the executions of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg. So, uh, a weird one.

Our theme music was composed by Nick Lerangis.
