Curiosityness
Louis Le Prince was the first person to create moving pictures—but just weeks before unveiling his invention to the world, he mysteriously disappeared. Three and a half years later, Thomas Edison, Le Prince’s rival, made the device public, claiming to have invented it himself.

112 The World's First Talking Dog! | Christina Hunger

I think every dog owner, myself included, has wanted their dog to talk at one time or another. Well buckle up because Christina has taught her dog to talk and you can too!

111 The Truth (& Lies) About How Baseball Happened | Thomas Gilbert
Curiosityness
I'm admittedly not a massive baseball fan but I do enjoy a good origin story and some outrageous fiction. This episode has both! I'm joined by Tom Gilbert, author of the book, How Baseball Happened: Outrageous Lies Exposed! The True Story Revealed. The wrongness of baseball history can be staggering. You may have heard that Abner Doubleday or Alexander Cartwright invented baseball. Neither did. You may have been told that a club called the Knickerbockers played the first baseball game in 1846. They didn’t. You have read that baseball’s color line was uncrossed and...
