Zombies and You: A Life and Death Conversation with Jacob Lankford (Reprise)

<description>&lt;p&gt;Today we're talking with Jeff Sellers, Director of Education at the TN State Museum. We'll learn about the museum's new state-of-the-art facility on the Bicentennial Mall in downtown Nashville and what it was like to "move houses" with 150,000 historical artifacts. Even if you've spent time in the former museum building, there is so much more to explore as artifacts that had never been on display are brought out of the shadows. Among the museum's collections are objects such as: a&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;550 year old slipper woven out of plant fiber, the beaver skin top hat that&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 14px;"&gt;Andrew Jackson wore for his inauguration, and the original neon sign for Ernest Tubb's Record Shop. Entry to the museum is always free.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;For more information, visit &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.tnmuseum.org." style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;www.tnmuseum.org.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Adventures in Tennessee History with Jeff Sellers, Director of Education at the TN State Museum 

<description>&lt;p&gt;The history of the Parthenon in Nashville is inseparable from the larger history of the city itself. Wesley Paine, Director of the Parthenon in Nashville, talks with us about how this full-scale replica came to be. Originally built for the 1897 Centennial Exposition, the Parthenon sits in the middle of what is now Centennial Park. Learn about the original purpose of the building and the stages in which the 42 foot tall Athena statue was built and adorned.
