S5-E13: His Accidency, John Tyler
enAugust 02, 2020
About this Episode
In an excessively long pre-ramble, Amanda and Sam discuss sushi, match-making, left handed people vs. right handed people, professional manicures, how different people organize their thoughts, and what to do with 25 pounds of peaches. You’d almost think that this isn’t an American history podcast. In the eventual episode, they discuss John Tyler (from “…and Tyler too”) and how much everyone completely hated him, but how he also managed to throw more hip than any old man this side of the Mississippi. Amanda discusses three riots. Sam discusses the status of slavery at the time.
