P.T. Barnum certainly made a name for himself with the bizarre. We're touching on Joice Heth, General Tom Thumb, Commodore Nutt, Grizzly Adams, Cheng & Eng Bunker, and other famous sideshow acts. Inspired by our own recent trip to an Oddities expo, we talk about some of what inspired these expos and trends.
