Spanish-ish Influenza of 1918 - the flu that would get you out of school forever.
We party like it's 1918-- inside, just like today, but worse. They treated the flu with turpentine. Dean Naomi Karavani (@naomikaravani) talks context as Shelley Kim (@shell_gasoline) discusses the origins (mythic and real). Bridget Geiran (@beegeiran) counts the dead, Michael Summers (@MichaelSums) talks about the effects on baseball, and Steven Chen (@stevenchenshow) talks about the effects of the influenza on vaudeville sideshow acts. You're gonna like hearing about how shitty it was.
