Skidmore College political scientist Beau Breslin joins Clay to discuss how America might prepare for its 250th birthday on July 4, 2026. Topics include the collapse of civility and mutual respect and the breakdown of respect for American institutions, from the Supreme Court and the FBI to the media and the church. They discuss the possibility of a new constitutional convention as a way of commemorating America's 250th anniversary. They also examine what Clay is discovering about the country's mood as he follows John Steinbeck's 1960 Travels with Charley journey.
