  • 32: Pocahontas was *not* into John Smith (Part 2)
    When the English popped up on the shore of the “New World,” they were in rough shape. They didn’t have much food, knew next to nothing about their surroundings, and had a boatload of diseases. The English also brought with them an interesting worldview. They figured that Native Americans would be thrilled to: Give them food, work for them, change religions, and one day pay taxes to the King. They thought wrong. Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Norm pulled from: Custalow, Linwood, and Angela L. Daniel. The True Story of Pocahontas. Fulcrum Publishing, 2007. “The Lost Colony - Fort Raleigh National Historic Site (U.S. National Park Service),” n.d. https://www.nps.gov/fora/learn/historyculture/the-lost-colony.htm. “The Virginia Company of London - Historic Jamestowne Part of Colonial National Historical Park (U.S. National Park Service),” n.d. https://www.nps.gov/jame/learn/historyculture/the-virginia-company-of-london.htm.

  • 31: Pocahontas: More Than a Disney Movie (Part 1)
    Over the years, Pocahontas’ life story has become distorted, sensationalized and mythologized. Hell, it even got turned into an exceptionally crappy Disney movie! In this series, Norm separates fact from fiction as he delves into the complicated, fascinating life of Pocahontas. Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Norm pulled from: Custalow, Linwood, and Angela L. Daniel. The True Story of Pocahontas. Fulcrum Publishing, 2007. Henricus. “Making a House a Home in Powhatan Indian Communities,” January 31, 2020. https://henricus.org/2020/01/31/making-a-house-a-home-in-powhatan-indian-communities/. Townsend, Camilla.

  • 30: Ya Call This Art??
    Note: Hi friends. We had to say goodbye to our sweet, 17-year-old cat, Boo, this week, so we’re releasing this episode from our Patreon. We’ll be back to our regularly scheduled programming next week. Teri Horton didn’t mince words. The $5 thrift store painting she’d picked up for a friend was ugly. Very ugly. It wasn’t even what she’d call art. It looked like blobs and sprays of paint flung willy-nilly on a massive canvas. So, when Teri’s friend didn’t want the painting, Teri wasn’t offended. But Teri was sure surprised when an art teacher told her she might have purchased a genuine Jackson Pollock painting. Teri’s response was quick. “Who the f*** is Jackson Pollock?” Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Kristin pulled from: The documentary, “Who the #$and% is Jackson Pollock?” “The Case for Jackson Pollock,” by PBS Digital Studios “The Mark of a Masterpiece” by David Grann for the New Yorker “Jackson Pollock: Demystifying America’s Most Influential Painter,” by The Conspiracy of Art YouTube channel “$50-million question,” by Louise Baring for The National Post “‘Ugly’ painting’s creator still disputed; now artists claim it,” by Kristina Sauerwein for The Los Angeles Times “A thrift-shop Jackson Pollock masterpiece?” 60 Minutes “‘Bakersfield Mist’ pits art misfit against art maven,” by Barbara Yoresh for the Indian River Press Journal “Costa Mesa woman known for the fight to authenticate a possible Jackson Pollock painting dies without selling it,” by Susan Hoffman for the Daily Pilot “After 25 years, Costa Mesa woman still holding out for a ‘fair price,’” for the Daily Pilot

  • 29: Frances Perkins Gave Us the Weekend (Part 2)
    Frances Perkins wasn’t just the first woman to serve in a presidential cabinet. She was also America’s longest serving Secretary of Labor. The only thing that overshadows her status as a trailblazer is what she accomplished in office. She’s the reason we have Social Security. She led the fight to end child labor, to establish a minimum wage and to create the 40-hour work week. She tried to establish universal health care… but hey, she was only human. Ready for the sad part? She did all of that while under constant personal attacks. Her political opponents tried to impeach her. They spread a rumor that she hadn’t been born in America. Hmm… does any of that sound familiar? Ya know what Paula Abdul says… two steps forward and two steps back… Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Kristin pulled from: The documentary, “Summoned: Frances Perkins and the General Welfare.” The book, “The Woman Behind the New Deal,” by Kirstin Downey The Frances Perkins Center website “Frances Perkins” entry on the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Website Are you enjoying An Old Timey Podcast?

  • 28: Frances Perkins Fights For Workers Rights (Part 1)
    Frances Perkins was the first woman to serve in a presidential cabinet. She’s the reason we have Social Security. She led the fight to end child labor, to establish a minimum wage and to create the 40-hour work week. In this episode, we find out how this remarkable woman got her start. Did it help that her birth name was Fanny??? Possibly! Bad names build character! Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources!
