The Meatshower Part Two (Electric Burgoo)

The Past and The Curious: A History Podcast for Kids and Families

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!
