71. Black History Month

Hi there, friends and favorites! With March right around the corner, we want to make sure we highlight some of the most amazing, inspiring and influential people from this country's history. Happy Black History Month, ya'll! Full disclosure, we started this podcast because we felt dumb all the time in regards to our Florida education, and nothing makes us feel dumber than doing a deep dive into the history of the Civil Right's Movement. There is much we never learned in school and as adults and we know it's our responsibility to unlearn what we were taught and then learn the truth about the backbone of the country. Thank you, Google. In this episode Kelly leads a fun quiz all about some incredible black inventors. She even managed to shout out "Hanging Chads." Impressive, indeed. Lindsey looks to an Oprah list and writes a quiz called "Black People We Should Know" and then your two favorite idiots each feature an unbelievable who paved the way to help desegregate this country, one boycott at a time. We hope this episode inspires you to do more research on your own when it comes to black history and our country's history.
