Society & Culture


It's a Christmas miracle! Caroline and Adrienne are back after the great fall hibernation otherwise known as grad school. The Scandal Sheets ladies are serving up an extra heaping helping of scandal with the first part of a trilogy on the Singer family. Isaac Merritt Singer is credited with inventing the sewing machine, when in fact he just improved upon the product and marketed the hell out of it. When he was not borrowing others ideas, he was on a one man quest to re-populate the earth. No, he wasn't Mormon, just insatiable. Along the way, Caroline decides that hipsters lived in Brooklyn in the 19th century and Adrienne gets hung up on the small houses of the wonderful Ernest Flagg.===============================================================Visit Scandal Sheets on Facebook and Instagram (@scandalsheetspod) and our website, www.scandalsheetspod.com.
