Episode description
In this new season, we will be following along with the class I am teaching this semester on Work and Play in the Industrial Revolution. In this episode, we go through the rationale for the course, and we talk about the before part of the story: the popular culture of the long 18th century, filled with drinking, maypoles, and seasonal work.
