Hot Messes of History
Crystal (alarmingly obsessed with old buildings) and Meghan (too engrossed in conspiracy theories to hold normal conversations) bond over a mutual hatred of their own voices, as well as the courage it takes to overcome that hatred in order to produce a podcast! Each week, Crystal and Meghan will tackle a new topic of history that resonates with their own feelings of Hot Mess-ness. There will be giggling, cats, obscure pop culture references (Crystal), less obscure pop culture references (Meghan), and general comedic excellence!
