Coming up with new nicknames is an art form, and this episode is chocked full of art. Cass teaches us all about composer, conductor and family man Samuel Coleridge-Taylor (not to be confused with Samuel Taylor Coleridge). And while they may not have been lauded a fine art in their time, Nat's topic of Dime Novels (or Penny Dreadfuls) are responsible for a lot of the advances in printing and prose you enjoy to day.
