Polypotamia Was NOT A Cambodian Dictator!

In 2010, once and future Java & Jazz host, Brian Unger hosted a show on the History Channel based on the book, How the States Got Their Shapes.  

The program looks at the many different arguments and eventual compromises that resulted in the map that we have today.

Planned as a one-time special, the program was well-received and is now being produced as a weekly series that should air later this year.

Here's your chance to see the original program and learn where the state of Polypotamia might have been.  (I wonder what their state university mascot might have been....)

Up for bid at this year's auction, is a DVD copy of the special provided by Mr. Unger and The History Channel.
