Constitution USA

KUER 90.1 | By Doug Fabrizio

Published May 27, 2013 at 2:00 PM MDT

Tuesday, PBS wraps up its series "Constitution USA," with NPR's own Peter Sagal. Of course, you wouldn't expect a stodgy documentary from the host of the irreverent news quiz "Wait, Wait … Don't Tell Me." Sagal traveled around the country on a very red, white and blue Harley to learn stories of how our founding document affects peoples' lives. He joins Doug to talk about how the Constitution doesn't answer all our political questions, but it is the framework for having disputes without killing each other.

KUED Channel 7 will air the 4th installment of Constitution USA Tuesday night at 8:00 p.m. You can watch past episodes online here.
