Here’s a bonus episode that’s a bit different than the usual scripted shows––a book review/analysis of ‘1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus’ by Charles C. Mann.

Lots of myth busting of misconceptions about indigenous people coupled with new research that shines a light of what the New World and its inhabitants were actually like. I figured it fits the theme of Thanksgiving so I’d release it into the main feed.

Chang and Eng, twins connected by a band of flesh on their sternums, experienced more of the nineteenth century than perhaps anyone else: The East India Company, indentured servitude, freak shows, the American frontier, soot-stained Victorian England, the second great awakening, P.T. Barnum’s entertainment empire, slavery, the civil war, reconstruction, the unification of Germany, the gold rush.

This is the story of the original Siamese Twins!

Music by Brocker Way, Youth Lagoon, John Fahey, Federico Albanese, and Mulatu Astatke.
