Epidemics - Part I
Friday Feb 28, 2020
Friday Feb 28, 2020
As the world watches the COVID-19, come learn about historical outbreaks in Atlanta and how the city dealt with each. The press loved discussing the spread of disease - sensationalizing, rumors and fear were used just as freely 150 years ago. Diseases like yellow fever, smallpox, cholera, scarlet fever and tuberculosis each had their moment in history and this week, I’m covering Atlanta’s response, reaction and how wealth, race and gender played a role - because it always does.

Margaret Mitchell

Friday Feb 21, 2020
This week is all about Margaret Mitchell - from her family, childhood, marriages through health struggles and how she wrote arguably the most famous book in the world. What I love most about this episode, is how her life interacts and intersects with almost every iconic place in the city.

This week, I'm interviewing local entrepreneur, author and friend, Akila McConnell. We're talking about Atlanta’s early cooking and restaurant history and this episode is packed with incredible stories you've never heard before. From Native American cooking techniques, the first food vendors, the first restaurants to our love of Decatur Street and how immigrants have always shaped Atlanta's food scene.

Alexander Hamilton - REPLAY
Friday Feb 07, 2020
Friday Feb 07, 2020
February is Black History Month, Alexander Hamilton is STILL my favorite episode to-date AND my resources and researching skills have improved since starting this podcast - so this week, we're replaying the very first episode of Archive Atlanta, with some refreshed information.
Atlanta's Alexander Hamilton is the epitome of the American Dream. Rising from enslavement, to elected office, then owning his own business...his name would continue to live on through his son and future descendants. The city is filled with both ordinary and extraordinary buildings that his company constructed, and I am excited to bring this story back to the forefront for you.
