Episode notes

Robert Davis estimates that the slave traders from Tunis, Algeria and Tripoli enslaved one to 1.25 million Europeans in North Africa beginning in the 16th century until the middle of the 18th. These numbers do not include the European people who were enslaved by Morocco and other raiders and traders of the Mediterranean Sea. They're stealing them in Europe and taking them to Africa to work in like mines or something. And is that why you end up with all the like, South African white people? That's a good question.

Well, sometimes you get exactly what you wished for. We thought it would be a short week with the 4th of July and Joe came through! Just one episode to cover this week! That didn't stop Simon for airing some grievances.

Also, I'm very sorry for the abrupt ad in the middle. With one guest, we didn't have a natural break. Believe me, it seldom happens.

Enjoy!
