We’re doing a couple episodes on moments of historical gossip with our new Radiotopia pals from the show Normal Gossip.

Today, we discuss Anne Royall, who in 1826 began publishing books and articles based on her travels around the country talking to everyday folks about their everyday lives. She was able to gather stories and map society in a new way — and also recieved a lot of pushback for it.

Jody, NIki, and Kellie are joined by Kelsey McKinney and Alex Sujong Laughlin of Normal Gossip to discuss Royall’s work and legacy.
