At some point, presidential food stopped being private and started becoming a message. In Part Two of this two-part series, we follow the shift from quiet meals to cultural flashpoints, from jelly beans and broccoli to fast food and ice cream, and explore how what presidents eat becomes shorthand for personality, politics, and power. It sounds like trivia, but it tells you exactly how America learned to watch itself eat. Then we chat with Speaker and Author Marissa Cohen!

Before presidential meals became photo ops, they were shaped by survival, region, and habit. In Part One of this two-part series, we trace the favorite foods of America’s earliest presidents and discover how corn, salt fish, macaroni, and cherries reveal a young country still figuring out how to feed itself. These aren’t cute trivia facts. They’re clues to how power looked before anyone was watching. Then we chat with Speaker and Author Marissa Cohen!

This week we explore the bizarre true story of an invisible barrier inside a 3M manufacturing plant that workers could feel as they walked through a doorway. It sounds like science fiction, but it was actually caused by massive static electricity fields generated during high speed film production. We dig into the physics, the engineers who investigated it and the other strange static related stories that make this one of the most surprising manufacturing mysteries ever to happen inside 3M.

In this episode we explore how Jean-Baptiste Lully, the towering figure of French Baroque music, met an unexpectedly grim fate: while fiercely conducting his own Te Deum, he stabbed his foot with his staff, refused surgery and died of gangrene. Along the way we follow his rise from Italian miller’s son to court composer of Louis XIV, survey the evolving tools of conducting, and reflect on how a moment of hubris and misstep changed music history. Strap in for spectacle, irony and a reminder that even great maestros can trip up literally—and yes, the internet says it’s true. Did you know The Internet Says It's True is now a book?
