In this week's episode, we travel to Eastern Europe to learn all about Ukraine. Host Rick Jackson breaks down the rocky history of the young country – and explains the tense situation at its border with Russia.
Next, in honor of President’s Day, we meet one of seven presidents from Ohio: a war hero, who originally wanted to be a math teacher.
Then, we hear about four Cleveland schools that are taking another look at their namesakes – and considering changing their school’s names to better reflect modern values. That got us wondering: who would you name your school after?
