Summary

On today's episode, we discuss one of the most overlooked turning points of the 20th century, Greece and Turkey agreed to swap over 1.5 million people—Christians for Muslims—in what became the first large-scale, state-sanctioned population exchange. Also, marble skulls, Balkan giants, and why Americans are the loudest tourists on Earth.
