Jill and Connor kick off this episode with the British Warship the HMS ROYAL OAK which after touring WWI, met her match in WWII being torpedoed by u-boat captain GÜNTHER PRIEN. He was awarded the first KNIGHT'S CROSS OF THE IRON CROSS for killing over 800 people. What a nazi. From Günther we head to THE GREAT DEPRESSION, which coupled with the Dust Bowl and the unreal events of Black Sunday, made for dark days, literally and figuratively, for millions of Americans. OKIES they were called and boy were they mistreated, but within them rose the voice of the iconic WOODY GUTHRIE. An episode as American as war, man made disasters and capitalism! You're gonna love it, Freakz!!
