What is In All of Us Command?

In All of Us Command is a show about countries and their national anthems. Each week, the hosts will draw a country at random and learn about their history and the history of their anthem. We will listen to the songs and rate them on several criteria.

Join our hosts, Aaron and Kate, as they learn how very little they know about the world outside of Canada.
