Do you recall which podcast? Always looking for new content.

I actually started looking for it but couldn't find it yet... I'll post if I do.

Shoot - can't find it, starting to think that I am just remembering watching the video that Rick posted or something similar.

While I was looking I did also run across Mary Anderson, inventor of the first functional/effective windshield wiper. It was hand operated and removable so that you only had to keep it on your car when weather called for it. :slight_smile: Fun facts!

If you do like history podcasts in general, the History Chicks is a good one to hear about interesting women in history, who often don't get the attention/credit they deserve.
