I think you might be projecting with the "uniquely American" thing, because I don't know what you've been listening to but it doesn't sound like this show at all.

Him and his family was exhibited prominently in Tivoli in the middle of the capital Copenhagen, and drew more than 200.000 visitors.

2023-06-18 07:34:59 +0000 UTCWhy does Belgium get an emphatic "good for you" for cracking down on human zoos in the 1950s while other negative basic human behavior is "uniquely American"? I love you guys but this podcast feels like it's turning into a "here's all the ways america sucks the most" podcast no matter what the topic is. It's like reddit in podcast form. Can we go back to ghosts and cryptids and vagina islands and stuff?
