Uncorked: "Mad Whimsy" & the Quaker Glow-Up with Dr. Erica Canela


Listen Later

This week on Uncorked, Dr. Erica Canela joins us to dive into the wild, weird, and unexpectedly chaotic world of Quaker history. Yes, the Quakers were unhinged, and yes, they’ve had a major glow up.

We break down the evolution from radical early Quaker antics to the modern-day Friends, some of whom are kind of attractive. Naturally, this leads to a very serious scholarly exercise we call “Quaker Hot or Not.”

And don’t miss the story of the MOST unhinged Quaker woman of them all... a legend of pure, unfiltered “mad whimsy.”

If you thought you knew the Quakers, think again.

Make sure you catch the visual of this episode on our YouTube channel!
