    Ep. 15 - S is for Syphilis - a story about the Roaring 20's pt. 1

    Happy 2020, friends! it's amazing to be living exactly 100 years from one of the most influential decades in our country. We've decided to celebrate all year long, bringing you a Roaring 20's themed episode approximately every other month. Today's episode, no. 15, is part 1. Today is a crash course into what made this decade so extraordinary. We'll talk about a timeline of the 20's, along with a discussion of inventions and progresses that were made. And while, yes, the title of the episode includes "syphilis", the actual discussion of the STI has been saved for February 14th's episode.
