About this listen

 Box of Oddities Live Tour Tickets! Learn more! Resurrecting George Washington, the First Lady Freak Files, and other patriotic tales. This Independence Day, Box of Oddities declares its independence from boring history. In this explosive episode, Kat and Jethro crack open two patriotic oddities you won’t find in your middle school textbook. First: the bizarre true story of how George Washington’s doctors tried to bring him back from the dead using lamb’s blood, warmed wine, and a tracheotomy straight out of a horror flick. Spoiler: it didn’t work, but it was disturbingly enthusiastic. Then, peel back the pristine portraits of America’s First Ladies to reveal their lesser-known, darker sides—from séances in the White House to whispers of obsession and manipulation. It’s presidential weirdness with a side of barbecue. 🧨 Tune in for a weird, wild ride through America’s haunted history, and discover just how strange freedom can be.
