We're back folks! Sorry for the long Hiatus. Today we covered the wild story of Daniel Sickles, US congressman, war hero, and temporarily insane murderer. Please let us know if there are any stories you'd like us to cover via email or Instagram DMs. Also-apologies for the lack of intro or outro music, Spotify has updated their editing hub and we're still figuring it out.
