The Life of Thomas Downing Chapter 2: The World's Mine Oyster

  • Resumen

  • It's now 1820, Thomas Downing is working in New York City as a registered oysterman, selling his crops to local businessmen for their oyster cellars. Oyster Cellars were seedy and vulgar; pickpocketing was common, male patrons were disorderly and obscene. Thomas wanted to make oysters a luxury food and serve them in a business of elegance and class. He revolutionized the oyster industry and became a local and international sensation in the process.

    Additional vocals in this episode are from Bill Troxler and Thom Nolan.
