Do you have a podcast released sometime in Nov 2008 that compared the then current situation to a similar situation endured by the Roman Empire? I heard a piece on NPR that I would like to use in my history classes. Just wondering if it was something you produced.

There is a fairly recent book titled "Empires of Trust" (can't recall the author), that quite thoroughly explores this comparison.
