Have you ever wondered why fireworks are such a big part of 4th of July celebrations? Or what fireworks are? In this episode, Alley teaches the history of fireworks. And Spencer details the not-so-known histories behind a children's rhyme turned superstition. Spoiler alert! The original rhyme was far from innocent. Side note: please remember that we are stoners and sometimes technical difficulties occur. In this episode Alley completely forgets to set up the equipment correctly and doesn’t realize until the end of the episode. Live and learn 💕
We hope you enjoy this episode and if you do we’d appreciate a review and five stars!!
