Brian Unger, "The Daily Show", "Always Sunny in Philadelphia", "How the States Got Their Shapes" sits down with Zane to get real. They talk about working together (on "Showdown of the Unbeatables"), Zane's stand-up TV Special, and how difficult it is to give honest advice in Hollywood (with a VEY specific example).

Why do Midwestern and Rocky Mountain states share a boxy, sharp-edged shape while East Coast state borders look like the fever dream of an impressionist painter? Much of it has to do with when these states came into existence, and whether their borders were set by an 18th century land surveyor, a 19th century committee that wanted to balance the size of free states and slave states, or a 20th century government panel basing their decisions on aerial photography.

A few years ago there was a wonderful show on TV, "How the States Got Their Shapes." Host Brian Unger takes you around the country and looks at.... well... how the states got their shapes. It's all based on the book of the same name (HERE). For what it's worth, the show is better than the book, but the information is the same. At any rate, why does any of that matter? Yesterday, the California Supreme Court ruled that the much-heralded and discussed Prop 9, a vote by the people on whether or not to separate California into three States should be removed from the ballot because it "might" violate the States Constitution. Now... whether it does or not we have to ask some questions about this whole deal. Plausibly live, It's Constitution Thursday on The Dave Bowman Show!
