Alright everybody, welcome to the Pastimes Podcast. Each week we go through an old newspaper from a random date. History picked up by Dave Anthony. I'm Gareth Reynolds and I've never seen it before and neither is our guest this week. That's telling. Welcome back.

I'm happy to be here. Time to go through a weird paper together. That's why I'm here. Not better ways to get to know each other than to go through an old time you pay for.

Now Beth, would you like to promote anything up top? Obviously you have a very fantastic special. Are there any other things you would like to promote your special is girl daddy, which you can, which can be seen upon HBO Max.

That's where it is. That's really it. That's all I got. That's good. I can't think of anything else. Go to my website by a shirt if you like. I mean, who knows?

Buy a shirt and watch the special in the shirt. I cannot recommend the shirts enough. I have like eight. I like them all.

Dave has been asked to stop buying the shirts from the site, which is like, merchandise that red flag never passed. They can't figure out the coding to block you, but they're trying. I got a couple of emails that was like, this is getting awkward.

Dave's like, why do you keep why do you keep ordering them in different sizes? I want to watch the special again. I want to see if it's funny or in a double Excel.

Okay. Okay. And a P.O. box. That's right. Dangerous combo. That's right.

Okay. So you've got a creepy paper this week. Yeah. This is the paper I've selected. Kings County rural Gazette. It's flat bush,

not Bushney, flat bush New York. So it's over there in the Brooklyn area March 15th 1873. Okay. So it's an early one. Right. We would expect a lot of anti-immigrant stuff far different than today's culture.

I mean, a cotton gin. I don't know why. Yeah. Yeah. That's right. A delicious drink, by the way, cotton gin. I don't know if it's.

1873. Yeah. There's a little news. All that happens on the front page here is a little news summary. What? Grant will not change his cabinet. That's the whole story.

I like drawers. You list these S. Yeah. I guess that yeah. I'm assuming it's you list his S. Or could be Fred. And you wouldn't. And you really would not want to know anything else. I mean, that says it all. Like who needs new ones?

Yeah. Grant won't change cabinet. Yeah. Yeah. The wood shed for the inauguration ball costs $60,000. I have no idea what the fuck is happening.

Wow. That seems like a lot of money for back then. I don't know. Yeah. It does. It's $60,000 is a lot back then. And it's a lot. It would be a lot for a wood shed today.

Yeah. Yeah. And guys, is this not a term wood shed? Or we have a party in a wood shed? It's going to mean something else, right? They can't just be like, no, look, the wood shed. The inaugural wood shed.

You can invite into the wood shed party. Yeah. Right. It's a year for me at the wood shed. We're going to do the wood shed after the inauguration. Wait.

When you come in, you come into the wood shed. Why is your mom? I just, I just read some spectacular at this rate. It's just so okay.

Yeah. Kerosene, it, Kerosene is up again. This time it took up a colored woman named Duval who lit a fire with it in Baltimore. Wait. What? Are these, these must be new journalists that are still trying to figure out how to write.
