5. An American Pastime

This week we slowly step backwards out of the room away from the man with the gun with that furious look in his eye... skip in his step and song in his heart. Put on your detective hat, gloves and cape and join us in solving a mystery.  On this episode we ask: what qualifies as an old time sex worker, why tornados ruin a good time and who in the world has stolen all of those children's shoes?! Also, which was the dog head and cat head one again? We were joined by Neely Kimey a certified ADHD coach and podcaster, who works to support clients to smash through self-doubt and live a genuine existence - they can be found at: Web: https://weird-wired.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/neelykimeyLinktree: https://linktr.ee/NeelyKimey  The History Mongers, brought to you by B-Unit Productions, is a history andentertainment podcast by nerds, for nerds.
