Send us Fan Mail
Why do people in Europe, Australia, Japan, and South Korea have access to sunscreen ingredients that Americans can't buy? In this episode of Info On The Go, we uncover the surprising history of sunscreen, explore the science behind UVA and UVB rays, and examine why the United States regulates sunscreen differently than much of the rest of the world. From ancient sun protection to modern FDA regulations and the future of skincare, discover why the debate over sunscreen is about much more than avoiding a sunburn—it could have lasting implications for public health.

July 08, 2026 250 YEARS OF THE UNITED STATES
Send us Fan Mail
The United States has never reached a final version of itself. Strip away the standard textbook timelines, and you find a 250-year-old journey built not on absolute resolution, but on managed contradiction.
This sweeping documentary series spans from the pre-colonial collision of empires to a revolutionary philosophy that left its core promises dangerously incomplete. Witness the compounding fractures of western expansion, the existential crucible of the Civil War, and America's rapid acceleration into a global superpower. From the intense ideological battles of the Cold War to the algorithm-driven echo chambers of the digital age, the same fundamental questions keep resurfacing: What is freedom? Who belongs? What are we building?
250 Years of the United States is a gripping look at a history shaped by friction, progress, and persistent internal doubt. It is the story of a nation doing exactly what it did at its inception—struggling to define itself while the experiment is still under construction.

July 06, 2026 Founding Fathers — Legends vs Reality (A Dash of Info)
Send us Fan Mail
In this episode of A Dash of Info, we separate the legends from the reality behind America's Founding Fathers. From fierce political rivalries and competing visions for the future to the contradictions between ideals and actions, the story of the nation's founders is far more complex than the polished version found in textbooks. Discover how figures like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, Benjamin Franklin, and John Adams navigated uncertainty, conflict, and compromise to build a new nation. It's a fascinating look at the humans behind the monuments—and why understanding the real story matters.

July 01, 2026 The Weirdest Allied Projects Of WORLD WAR II
Send us Fan Mail
World War II is remembered for radar, codebreaking, and the atomic bomb—but beneath the headline inventions lies a parallel shadow war fueled by desperation and wild imagination. This series takes you inside the smoke-filled planning rooms where the rules of warfare were rewritten in real time, and no idea was too bizarre to test.
Discover the history behind the military's strangest secrets: missiles guided by trained pigeons, cities targeted by bomb-toting bats, undercover saboteurs packing dead rats with plastic explosives, and a massive aircraft carrier built entirely out of ice. From the chaotic, rocket-powered Great Panjandrum wheel to the "Ghost Army" artists who built fake divisions out of thin air, The Weirdest Allied Projects of World War II is a gripping, unbelievable journey into a hidden layer of the war where creativity became the ultimate weapon.
