Wen and Andrew sit down with the absolutely hilarious, and apparently incredibly skilled runner, Eden Dranger to talk about the entire history of running! They track when and how humans first evolved to run, through the Greek games, to the jogging craze, and the most absolutely insane Olympic disaster where SO many people almost died! Like, WAY more people than you'd think could die in a marathon, as they used the runners for a science experiment on whether or not humans need water!
