Today's podcast salutes a breakfast staple (for some folks) ... scrapple, which then leads into a sampling of 'blood pudding'.

It's Election Day, and Barry's guest on the podcast is Jim Moyer of the French and Indian War Foundation. Jim shares George Washington's plan to get out the vote in the 1758 election to win a seat in the House of Burgesses representing Frederick County. The plan revolved around food and booze.
