Summary
We are back on our American History train! This year we start out discussing The Royal African Company as well as the foundations of the Carolinas and Georgia. Randi and Christina stick with the classics, Karina sips on a Carolina Bulldog, and Greg drinks an Equillibrum Mc2 Double IPA and bourbon for the trauma.
