  • Librarians!
    Mar 29 2024
    Episode 91 is about Anne Carrol Moore and The Western Library! Anne Carroll Moore is one of history's most important children's librarians, but not everyone is in love with her legacy. She still changed the world, and mostly for the better. And Louisville, Kentucky's Western Library is the first library in America built for, and staffed by African-Americans and it became a training ground for many librarians around the country.

  • The Meatshower Part Two (Electric Burgoo)
    Mar 2 2024
    In The Meatshower Part 2 (Electric Burgoo) the saga continues. Originally we aired a segment in 2019 to coincide with Mick's book "The Meatshower: The Mostly True Tale of an Odd and (Somewhat) Edible Occurrence," and since then, new information has come to light. A man named Frank Reiser has come into possession of a new specimen from the unusual 1876 phenomenon. We have an exclusive interview with Frank, and share the story of how he found it, what it means, and what we can learn from it. Also included in this episode is The Meatshower Part 1 - in case you missed it, or if you would like to listen again!

Mick is an amazing storyteller and an overall funny guy

My family has been listening to the Past and the Curious since around the beginning and I always find myself relistining to episodes over and over again. It is one of the best, most entertaining podcasts I've ever listened to and I hope anyone who listens to this likes it too.
