On this very special episode about publishing enthusiast Benjamin Franklin’s little-known contribution to troll culture, we gab about the occult, Quakers, the Jersey Devil, and the 18th century version of flame wars--pamphlet feuds! We also cover the forthcoming installation of B&N’s new (British!) CEO and his ultimate dream to botox the company back into relevance. Emily reveals that she went to a high school whose most popular sport was water polo, while Corinne struggles to believe that Benjamin Franklin’s charisma was enough to get him laid as much as history would have us believe.
