Wesley and TJ were serious for a longer period of time than either felt comfortable with. Now they get to have a little fun talking about Valentine's Day with speaker, author, and radio host Bill Federer.

Bill traces the roots of Valentine's Day to its beginning with Saint Valentine who was martyred for standing up to the Roman government. It took hundreds of years, a push of popularity from literature (something TJ gets excited talking about), and a declaration from a Pope, but we eventually got a day to buy overpriced flowers to show our affection.

But Valentine's Day goes much further than February 14. It explains why you sign letters with Xs and Os, and why you sign at the X on legal documents.

Listen in if you want to hear about the fascinating legacy of a man we celebrate every year but know little about.
