We're celebrating U.S. Thanksgiving with an all-author edition of our Lightning Round series. Enjoy some hot takes from Stephen Wenn and Robert Barney, David Davis and Andrew Maraniss.

Stephen and Robert's book The Gold in the Rings: The People and Events that Transformed the Olympic Games is published by University of Illinois Press.
