In this episode we sit down with A.J. Jacobs, a journalist who noticed some striking similarities between Biblical fundamentalism and constitutional originalism, and since he once wrote a NYT bestselling book about titled The Year of Living Biblically in which he tried to live for a year as a fundamentalist, he tried to do something similar by living for a year following the Constitution's original meaning as if he were an originalist and then writing a book about it. He soon learned that donning a tricorne hat and marching around Manhattan with a 1700s musket, though fully within one's constitutional rights, will quickly lead to some difficult encounters and altogether strange circumstances.<a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/622521/the-year-of-living-constitutionally-by-aj-jacobs/">The Year of Living Constitutionally</a><a href="https://ajjacobs.com">AJ Jacobs' Website</a><a href="https://x.com/ajjacobs">AJ Jacobs' Twitter</a><a href="https://www.davidmcraney.com/howmindschangehome">How Minds Change</a><a href="https://twitter.com/davidmcraney">David McRaney’s Twitter</a><a href="https://twitter.com/notsmartblog">YANSS Twitter</a><a href="https://kitted.shop/referred-by-davidmcraney66">Kitted Shop</a><a href="https://kitted.app/article/kitted/the-story-of-kitted/0051">The Story of Kitted</a><a href="https://youarenotsosmart.com/">Show Notes</a><a href="https://davidmcraney.substack.com/">Newsletter</a><a href="https://www.patreon.com/youarenotsosmart">Patreon</a>
