July 4th, 1776 was the day 13 British colonies declared their independence from Great Britain and formed a new nation. Learn about the history of the US from an American and a Brit. (Do you think they'll agree?) They'll also show you how they celebrate July 4th today.

You'll hear why, in their opinions, they think:
- Americans wanted 'a divorce' from Great Britain
- the founding fathers were treasonous/brave/far-sighted
- taxation without representation was the core issue (or not)

Vicki and Jay will also describe how they celebrate in Philadelphia today with things like a parade, a street party and fireworks.
And along the way they'll share some of their favourite (and easy) traditional recipes for a great July 4th party.
