The Time Cafe Commercial (Teaser)

The Time Cafe Commercial (Teaser)

Teaser for an unaired TV show

Imagine if Julius Caesar, Cleopatra, Paris of Troy and Romulus Augustus, the last Emperor of Rome of the Western Empire, were gathered around a table. What would they say to each other? The show is hosted by Rob Cain.

This podcast is a tribute to the show Meeting of Minds, which aired on PBS from 1977 to 1981. The host was the comedian Steve Allen. The show featured guests who played significant roles in world history. Guests would interact with each other and discuss philosophy, religion, history, science, and many other topics. Sometimes the show was cheesy. Sometimes it held great gravitas. Most of the time, a wonderful informative show.
