But he plays one on TV. ;-)

But all kidding aside, of course he's a historian, in fact
he's become sort of the "house historian" for PBS. You may

He's not a historian Ken.

Sure he is. He makes historical documentaries, that makes
him a historian.


Nice cut job. It's completely useless having a conversation with you sometimes Ken.
