    Desperation Pie with Sarah Archer

    What would you do for a desperation pie? Kitchen correspondent Sarah Archer is here to talk with Sarah about the American food trends that marked the 20th century and how they related to the political and cultural changes of a nation in need of constant culinary inventiveness. They discuss the specialties of the barren Depression Era, the food-related propaganda and rationing of the wartime years, the meteoric rise of post-war disposability, the premade mixes and “exotic” dishes of midcentury housewives, and the special tastes of Soviet Cold War diplomacy. Throughout the episode, they discuss the messages these eras transmitted to the women in charge of the kitchen and draw parallels to our new era of trad wife cooking and carnivore dieting. Digressions include the unique features of Star Trek aliens, why cottage cheese is the Cher of foods, and how ironing sheets can be a potent tool for procrastination.

    Rhinelander v. Rhinelander

    Can the power of love ever conquer the love of power? When Leonard Kip Rhinelander, the heir son of a wealthy New York real estate family, met a working class girl named Alice Jones in the 1920s, it became a passionate romance for the ages. That is, until the Rhinelander family found out about Alice’s mixed race background and threatened to cut Kip off from their fortune, transforming a happy new marriage into a public legal nightmare. For this episode, ____ correspondent Princess Weekes tells Sarah the story of the landmark 1925 annulment case of Rhinelander v. Rhinelander and also provides context about how state governments were defining whiteness and Blackness after the Civil War, and together they discuss the modern versions of the pseudoscientific ideas still making the rounds in certain online spaces. Digressions include the Dakota Land Rush, a potential co-op in drafty castle tower, and the hope for a Meghan Markle Book Club.

    The Great American Spelling Bee with Gabe Henry

    Can you use the word in a sentence? For this episode, Spelling Correspondent Gabe Henry takes Sarah through the surprisingly rampageous (r-a-m-p-a-g-e-o-u-s) history of the Spelling Bee, a uniquely American phenomenon. From the earliest examples of late night “spelling matches,” to the rough-and-tumble contests of the early frontier, to the controversy of the first National spelling bee, it turns out that these mild-mannered academic flexes were once both raucous and revolutionary. Gabe also brings his own spelling bee to test the gifted child that still buzzes within Sarah Marshall. Digressions include Ben Franklin’s morning routine, why we need more statues of kids, and the Wolf Blitzer Hologram.

    Crop Circles with Chelsey Weber-Smith

    What do men really get up to at the pub? For this April Fools' Day episode, Sarah tells urban legend correspondent Chelsey Weber-Smith of American Hysteria the history and the mystery behind crop circles, those sophisticated patterns left imprinted in corn and wheat fields said to be made by alien beings. For years, no one could find a rational reason for their mysterious existence as they spread across various countries; that is, until a pair of surprising culprits finally came forward to reveal their master prank. Digressions include Ramona Quimby’s dad’s alma mater, sexy adaptations of costume drama novels, and the unrivaled power of shaky cam footage.
