Artifacts. History for Curious Minds.
by Eddy Blake
Artifacts: History for the Curious is a history podcast about the surprising stories hiding in plain sight. Each episode uncovers the history of ordinary things—highways, clothing hangers, Amish communities, inventions, customs, landmarks, and ideas we take for granted. It’s American history, cultural history, local history, and social history told through objects, places, and odd questions. For anyone who has ever wondered: How did this get here—and what does it reveal about us? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Girls fainted, sobbed, surged against barricades.This is the story of how America lost its mind, and how four Beatles changed what music, fame, and youth culture could be. Hosted on Acast.
