S5 E8 | Back to the Future: The Other Pandemic That Almost Ended The Modern World - The Spanish Flu

A pandemic AND a world war?? Wow, that sounds really hard. We wouldn’t know anything about that today, because we solved medicine and warfare, thankfully. Phew! Oh wait, just kidding. In today’s completely hashtag-relatable episode, come hear Nash and Angel learn about the other time these things happened in tandem - and why the 1910s were not better at coping at basically everything. Also, this entire thing is probably Kansas’s fault, despite the name “Spanish Flu”.
