This episode concerns the history of Progressive Rock, or Prog Rock, which has nothing to do with Bernie Sanders (or does it?). 

To learn the truth, Steve speaks with journalist David Weigel (Slate, Reason, GQ, Esquire, USA Today, Rolling Stone, Politico, and the Washington Post: Democracy Dies In Darkness) about his book  - The Show That Never Ends: The Rise and Fall of Prog Rock. 

They discuss the roots of Prog, robot armadillos, what Daryl Hall of Hall & Oates has to do with King Crimson, social media, and finally David's role in a new global news platform -  Semafor.
