For those of you looking for the Shōgun review - the unhinged 19th Century - and our take on it at Prizefighters Circus Freaks & Gangsters is what you are looking for… even though not technically the 19th century.  

Want to visit the Oregon Trail - here’s the link I promised: https://www.nps.gov/oreg/index.htm

And for Old American Food - you are in the right place.  The 19th Century - it’s braggadocio, optimism and hopefulness, plus a certain sprinkling of constructive narcissism... honestly is more representative of the American Spirit as we know it today than almost anything that happened in the 18th century. 
As a warning and a warm up, this week’s episode takes you through just how much and how far I have to go to encompass 1800 to 1861 - the start of the American civil war. 
Jump in, and buckle up.  The loop de loops are coming.
