The Best of the Thom Hartmann Program features excerpts from some of Thom's classic Air America shows, including conversations with bestselling authors from across the political spectrum. In Volume 2: Our Living History, Thom brings his deep grounding in American history to bear on current events. He explores ripped-from-the-headlines topics like the right-wing war on the middle class, the dangers of privatizing the military and healthcare, the threat of theocracy, the legacy of the American labor movement, and what those Republican tax cuts really mean. In this volume Thom talks to Chris Hedges (author of War Is a Force That Gives Us Meaning), Kevin Phillips, and Paul Krugman.
