In this podcast episode, we celebrate summer by remembering how we Used 2 Know Ice Cream Trucks. Do you remember that feeling when you heard the song "The Entertainer" get closer and closer? How about that scramble to find money and run out to the street in time to get a Good Humor bar? In this episode we go over the history of ice cream, how George Washington and Thomas Jefferson loved ice cream, "penny licks," Mr Softee, and discuss an ongoing ice cream truck "war" still going on in New York City.
