Episode Twenty-six: Ray Charles
Emma and Cami discuss the famous singer, Ray Charles, today. He had a rough life, which stinks, but he contributed a ton to the world of music, and influenced such greats as Elvis, Aretha Franklin, and Stevie Wonder! Way to go, Ray!

Episode Twenty-five: Phineas Taylor Barnum
Cami and Emma explore the life of P.T. Barnum, the circus guy and subject of recent Hollywood movie The Greatest Showman. Spoiler Alert: he’s a little shady.

Episode Twenty-Four: Rosalind Franklin
Cami and Emma have a grand ol’ time talking about a woman whose work was instrumental in the discovery of the shape of DNA… Rosalind Franklin! Her untimely death of cancer cut short a brilliant life of scientific breakthroughs.

Episode Twenty-three: Thomas Alva Edison
Thomas Edison, surprisingly, is one of the more wholesome subjects we have covered thus far (despite being BFFs with Henry Ford, holder of the 2018 CYL Worst Person Ever Award). Thanks to Alison for the episode suggestion! For old episodes, check us out at checkyourlegacy.com

Episode Twenty-Two: Annie Oakley
This week, Cameron reveals her deep and intense hatred for the makers of the 1950 musical starring Betty Hutton, Annie Get Your Gun. Not only is the music (mostly) stupid, it also entirely misrepresents the main character herself, Annie Oakley! For old episodes of the podcast, check us out at...

Episode Twenty-one: The Gold Rush
It’s Cameron’s birthday this Friday, and in the thick of all her planning she didn’t have time to research an episode this week. Emma to the rescue! This week, we discuss a few of the notable characters that began the 1849 gold rush. For old episodes of Check Your Legacy, find us at...

Episode Twenty: Henry Ford Part Two
Man, alive this episode was a roller coaster. Who knew Henry Ford was such an absolutely terrible man! This week Cameron stuns Emma with the strange, stubborn depths to which Henry Ford sunk during his life. He got his just desserts, though, we guess. Thanks for sticking with us through our first...

Episode Nineteen: Henry Ford Part One
We’re back on schedule, and better than ever. This week, Cameron and Emma draw a line in the sand. No more hour-long episodes! This week, they discuss the boring parts of Henry Ford’s life so that next week we can get to all the juicy and exciting bits (spoiler alert: this guy is terrible).

Episode Eighteen: Gertrude Ederle
Sorry for the late episode again, this is the only thing that Cameron consistently procrastinates on… Anyway, we have a very special Olympics-themed episode this week, about the 1924 Olympics, a water baby, and the English Channel!
-
Episode Seventeen: Richard Nixon
In a ridiculously long episode, Cameron and Emma set some unrealistic expectations of understanding and academia. Finally, a podcast subject with a robust Wikipedia page! (just kidding…)
