STEPHANIE shines a hard light on Andrew Jackson who scandalously built the Deep South by stealing native land to make way for white settlement and created the region’s minority pull on the levers of power that linger today.

Today we are kickin' it old school regarding our drink!

Today we are kickin’ it old school regarding our drink! The Gin Punch we're sipping on is our adaptation of a classic punch from the 1820s. It also happens to taste like a boozy lemon-flavored San Pellegrino! Salute!

Also covered: The hilariously lame origin story of the Tom Collins, Old Hickory vs. delicious hickory sausages, Stephanie’s firing of Tux for not speaking Thai, Tux’s love of movies from the 40s, Nigerian scams, yellowface, and Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

Stephanie’s scandal is a foundational one about the Cherokee Nation’s Trail of Tears, that massive genocidal redistribution scheme in which a native people, who had won their sovereignty case in front of the Supreme Court, lost everything they had because the executive branch refused to follow the judiciary. Who knew that could happen?
