From an ordinary vegetable grew an extraordinary story. In this episode of A Dash of Info, we explore how the famous Vidalia onion became America's sweetest onion—not through science or careful planning, but because of the unique soil of South Georgia. Discover the accidental discovery, the chemistry behind its mild flavor, the legal battles to protect its name, and how one small town built an identity around a crop that changed agriculture forever.

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.

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.

 Being Me Is the Best Thing to Be by Judy Erb tells the story of Honey, a curious little turtle who learns that being herself is the very best thing to be. It's a wonderful read for children, parents, and grandparents, celebrating self-confidence and self-acceptance.

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.

Europe is sweltering under record-breaking temperatures—but what exactly is a heat dome, and why can it become one of nature's deadliest weather events? In this episode of Info On The Go, William and Kat explore the science behind these powerful high-pressure systems, how they trap heat for days or even weeks, and why they can cripple infrastructure, threaten food supplies, and put millions of lives at risk. From the Dust Bowl of 1936 to Europe's deadly 2003 heat wave and today's extreme temperatures, discover how heat domes have shaped history—and why understanding them may be more important than ever.

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.

You stop for coffee, fill up your gas tank, walk the dog, and go about your day without a second thought. But what if your phone quietly recorded every step along the way? In this episode of Info On The Go, William and Kat explore the world of geofencing—an invisible technology that creates digital boundaries around real-world locations. Learn how businesses use it for convenience, how law enforcement uses it to investigate crimes, and why it has sparked intense debates over privacy, surveillance, and civil liberties. From real court cases to practical tips for protecting your location data, this episode reveals how your smartphone may know more about where you've been than you do.

Before America’s folk music could be preserved, someone had to go out and find it. In this episode, we explore the remarkable life of John Lomax—the teacher, folklorist, and song collector who traveled thousands of miles recording the voices and music of ordinary Americans. From cowboy ballads on the Texas frontier to prison work songs in the Deep South, Lomax helped save thousands of folk songs that might otherwise have been lost forever. Along the way, he discovered legendary musicians like Lead Belly and helped create one of the most important archives of American music in history. 

Join us as we uncover the story of the man who preserved the soundtrack of America.
