1.22 - Blankets, Sleighs, and Choppers - Oh My!

Are the good old days truly the good old days? Grab your pickax, rope, and handcuff key for its time to break out of boredom jail and join Kinsey and Anna on the lam from the daily grind. Yes, fellow travelers, today’s adventure focuses on some of the past century’s more absurd, bizarre, and purely entertaining prison escapes. Everyone knows of Dillinger, the barber-shop dummies of Alcatraz, El Chapo… but have you heard about the pint-sized Houdini, Jack Sheppard? Or the brazen Biddle Brothers and history's version of the Bronco sleigh chase? Advancing to more modern times, Anna shares all about America’s problems with downed ducks, star-crossed lovers, and France’s obsessions with using helicopters and food to bust out of the pen. So sit back, relax, and plot your own path to freedom as you listen to this week’s episode of Oh the Good Old Days!   Podcast Links to share - your friends will thank you... if not, we sure will! https://bit.ly/itunesotg  https://bit.ly/spotifyotg  https://bit.ly/amazonotg https://bit.ly/youtubeotg    The Good Old Days is produced by What A Concept Productions.
