U.S. History in 100 Objects (with Roman Mars)
Notes de l’épisode
A screw. A stuffed possum. A shoe-sizing device. What could any of these objects possibly tell us about the history of the United States?
When we think of historic artifacts, we tend to picture the extraordinary: Abraham Lincoln's pocket watch, the original Kermit the Frog, Martin Luther King Jr.'s draft of the "I Have a Dream" speech. But the story of America can just as easily be found in the everyday objects that shape our lives.
In this bonus episode, Lizzie sits down with Roman Mars to talk about his new series, A History of the United States in 100 Objects. Together, they explore how ordinary things can reveal distinctly American stories.
