History of Knick-Knacks

Wrapping Paper and the Mysteries of Hallmark


Listen Later

Heyyyooo it's been a hot minute or few weeks. In a world where consistency is key the History of Knick-Knacks has gone quiet. Some wondered if Rob and Jairen would ride off into the audio sunset.... some even doubted that there was enough historical nonsense to keep this show going. Wonder and doubt no longer. In what has become this month's special holiday episode Rob and Jairen find out who invented modern day wrapping paper. Consumerism at it's finest, because when you care to send the very best.... use Hallmark. (We are yet to be sponsored by Hallmark so it doesn't matter to us if you use them) Wind down with this tale through the midwest of the roaring 20's and let yourself learn some historical nonsense from yours truly. Happy Holidays!
