Welcome everyone to another of our regularly scheduled reruns.

Right now, members are enjoying not one but two bonus episodes.

I've mentioned recently that there have been a lot of voicemails in response to the bonus material.

So we did a whole feedback episode just to address a lot of those voicemails and not all of them.

But we also wanted to talk about this other idea.

I had recently, so we had to just do two shows.

The idea that I wanted to address was how the built and natural environments shape the people that we become.

Sort of a big concept, but we'd talk about a few different examples and thought about,

for instance, what impacts cities have on the people who live there.

Like if you commute every day through Penn Station, one of the worst transit centers on the planet,

then how is your life different and measurably worse than someone who commutes bicycle every day in Copenhagen?

Just for example.

And what kind of value should we as a society put on that while we're writing our budgets and crafting our tax policy?

So it's a really good conversation.

I think it is well worth your time.

Today's rerun, though, is also an interesting one.

I found this episode that I completely forgot about, to be honest, that I produced in November 2016,

pretty soon after the election, that very explicitly, yet very carefully, that's an important note,

compares Trump with Hitler.

Just to see what, if anything, could be gleaned from the comparison,

can we learn anything from it?

Are we head towards fascism?
