Ed Helms

And now his first book is coming out.

It's called America's Founding Son, John Quincy Adams, From President to Political Maverick.

I'm super excited to have him on Snafu this week.

Welcome, Bob Crawford.

Thank you, Ed.

It's a joy to be here.

Heck, yeah.

I mean, I have to say, I don't even remember when we met long, long time ago, but I have only very recently learned of your history nerdiness, and this might be my new favorite thing about you.

Very cool.

Now, are you a heavy paper book guy?

Are you a Kindle guy?

Audiobooks?

What's your book game?

Oh, man.

You are a giant nerd.

Now, I can't help but connect these dots because I know it's true for me.

I don't know exactly how, but I know that my interest in history is connected to my love of more traditional music forms.

So like I'm very into, uh, folk music and, um, and obviously I'm a banjo player for bluegrass music.

And to me, I, I feel like those, uh, those music forms have, have been a, uh,

like a vessel or a connection to history in a way, almost in a subconscious way.
