BRF18: "Signal"

Take a trip down many lanes of great historical significance all the way into outer space with this banger of an episode! There's a lot in here about ancient systems of signaling in times of war and peace - super fascinating! And to keep things contemporary we also take you through the history of the (truly cathartic to execute) signal of the middle finger! Also, what does the Columbian army and pop music have in common - listen in for one of our most heartwarming segments ever! Barely Researched Facts is a facts-based show (barely) brought to you by ArtNowThus, a Mumbai-based experiential arts company. Born out of the infamous lockdown of 2020, the show is a trip down dissection lane – of words. Every episode, the hosts Ragini and Shar choose one word and deep dive into it. Every interesting fact we can find, we research – somewhat casually – and bring to you, pairing it with some good humour and casual chat between two friends. Come take a listen!
