You guys will get a kick out of this. Steve interviews Cleopatra (his wife, Jane Meadows). I remember this series when it aired back in the 70s. It’s the creator’s of The Tonight Show take on history, so the historical characters talk about what he wants to. It’s serious, not a comedy, but has humor in it.

We live, so we are told, in a post-ideological society. We are addressed by social authority not as subjects who should do their duty, but subjects of pleasures: ‘Realize your true potential,’ ‘Be yourself,’ ‘Lead a satisfying life.’ When you put the glasses on, you see dictatorship in democracy.
