Calling all history lovers, lifelong learners, and anyone who wants fun stories to tell at parties!

This is Where Did it Come From? Where Did It Go?

We've all used objects like forks, vending machines, and chewing gum, but what abut those items we no longer use anymore, like corsets or floppy discs? And what about those wacky inventions that never really took off, like Smell-O-Vision, the Life Expectancy Watch, and wooden bathing suits? In this 2-part podcast, we discuss everything you ever wanted to know about objects and their histories. Every Friday we post a mini-sode covering either a "Where Did it Come From?" , where we go in-depth tracing the origins of commonly used items, or a where "Where Did it Go?" segment, where we trace the rise and fall of bad or outdated inventions. The last Friday of each month we post a 2-part episode where we come together and give you one of each!
