Patent Medicines

Since there were people, diseases and, herbs, humans have been trying to figure out how to create medicines and cures. Unfortunately a lot of the time the result is a resounding "that aint it, bro."

The Salem Witch Trials Pt. 1

We decided to take another run at a big topic from Afternoonified's past now that we have the benefit of age, experience and...Emily got better at research. So sit back, do you best to relax (it's gonna be hard) and settle in to hear about Salem's incessant persecution of women of a certain age (and a few men, one of whom might have deserved it?).
