We take a look at history, or rather, how it could have been different. During this hour, we hear from people who study history in various forms; they will help us understand how one moment, mindset, event, or series of events could have changed history. We talk about a number of subjects, including the Beatles, the Erie Canal, Brexit, and more. Our guests: Amit Batabyal , professor of economics at RIT Adam Frank , astrophysicist at the University of Rochester and contributor to the NPR blog 13.7: Cosmos & Culture Michael Galban, curator and historian at the Seneca Art & Culture Center at Ganondagan John Covach , director of the Institute for Popular Music at the University of Rochester Christine Ridarsky , Rochester city historian and historical services consultant at the Central Library of Rochester & Monroe County Tim Kneeland , professor and chairperson of the Department of History and Political Science at Nazareth College
