Vacation with A.J. Jacobs: Ep. 418
This week on the show, we’re throwing our duffel bags into El Al’s overhead bins.

Jacobs returns to the show (for the sixth time!) to discuss his newest book, The Year of Living Constitutionally: One Man’s Humble Quest to Follow the Constitution’s Original Meaning. If you want to catch up on A.J.’s previous stints as Jew of the Week, you can find him on our very first episode, as well as here, here, here, and here.
