Episode 78 | All I Can Do is Yodel

You want to know the history of war elephants? What are we kidding, of course you do and Angie is here to give you what you want. She brings us back to 1100 BCE to their first recorded use. She shares how they fought against Alexander the Great. They helped in both World Wars. They were used even in 2017 by Burmese rebels in Myanmar. Theresa closes us out by sharing the Godmother of Rock 'N' Roll, Sister Rosetta Tharpe. This woman combined so many musical influences to give us the genre we all love. ...and Angie keeps bringing up Elvis. Because, Elvis.  This episode pairs well with:  The tragic story of Prince Dejatch Alemayehu
