Think your day is going badly? At least you're not a NASA astronaut caught trying to hide your vomit from Mission Control. Or Thomas Paine, American hero now abandoned by George Washington while in a French prison. Or a tough mob boss running like a frightened dog. Guest: Michael Farquhar, author of "More Bad Days in History: The Delightfully Dismal, Day-By-Day Saga of Ignominy, Idiocy, and Incompetence Continues" and "Bad Days in History: A Gleefully Grim Chronicle of Misfortune, Mayhem, and Misery for Every Day of the Year"
