Episode notes

There is no record of Paul Bragg wrestling in the Olympics. He really did leave the company to Patricia, not to his son. There are also some Patricia claims to fact check. She got a patent in 1957 when she was 28 years old for a douching device. In 1914, decades earlier, Mary Phelps, Jacob later known as Karest Crosby patented the brassiere.

Health claims about apple cider vinegar are everywhere. But are they true? This week, we hop into the wayback machine for the story of America's first health influencer. (That's not true, but neither is anything else in this episode.)
