Wed. 12/28 - BEST OF: Crossing the Ocean W/O a Map; Waffle House Records; & The Dress and Misinformation
Today from the Cool Stuff Ride Home archives, how Polynesian voyagers navigated the oceans without compasses or maps, and how a new generation is bringing back those traditional skills. Plus, Waffle House’s earnest and hilarious record label. And, looking at “The Dress” seven years on––did that viral moment lay the groundwork for the climate of misinformation today?
