Description
Part I: A multigenerational conversation about the events in history that we witnessed and how they affected us. We talk about culture, war, television, media, historical influences, points of view and legacy.Part II: Uploaded separately as Teacher Talk - Don't Know Much About History
Fact Check: John Lennon was assassinated in 1980, but I said 1981, because my memory of that year was the mourning of his death. Bay of Pigs was in 1961, Cuban Missile Crisis was in 1962. For Tom's memories on Pearl Harbor, see the first interview "Papa" Father's Day Conversation.
