The Dollop with Dave Anthony and Gareth Reynolds 93 - The Past Times with Sam Sacks
Sep 27, 2024
Sam Sacks, a member of Means Morning News and contributor to Redbubble Merch, joins the hosts for a lively romp through historical newspapers. They play a game guessing the year of an old article and delve into poignant reflections on tragedies like 9/11 and Pearl Harbor. The chat turns political, recalling Howard Dean's scream while critiquing the absurdity of past elections. They humorously tackle race and representation in Santa Claus imagery, plus funny anecdotes about Wisconsin's Pizza Hut buffet and its unique Wiccan minister.
