PRI's The World - Geo Quiz Podcast 433 Up on a Pedestal
We're looking for a much-visited historic square. It's the one named after an 1805 British naval victory. The square has fountains and statues - including a big one of Admiral Nelson with four lions at his feet. Then there's something called the fourth plinth. It's really just an empty stone pedestal. But in the past three months... some 2,400 people have taken turns standing on top of it for an hour each. It was part of an art experiment called the "One and Other" Project. Some gave speeches, others danced, or threw things to people below. Some wore costumes ...some wore nothing at all. We'll sample some of that show, as you name this famous square.
