Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Guest Host: Elaina Plott
An enthusiastic history buff can make the past come alive for new generations. Tim Grove’s passion for the past has taken him from Colonial Williamsburg to the Cape of Disappointment, and Harper’s Ferry to the National Mall. We talk with him about the stories he’s collected along the way and why they’re relevant to modern audiences.
