Hello, I’m Mick Sullivan and for 10 years I have created The Past and the Curious, a history podcast for kids and families. I work at the Frazier History Museum in Louisville and I have written two books for kids: 1 about the Kentucky Meatshower and 1 about the underwear of notable people.

I’ll be live on stage at @wburcityspace on Sunday, April 26th. Look at this awesome lineup! I hope to see you in Boston!

Kids deserve good stuff and fun and learning!

Ah, the Midwest.

Saw him open for the Punch Brothers ten years ago and thought he was awesome. I really like his album of songspiel Craigslist ads and missed connections.
Gonna hit play on this!

Is this the way of the future?

Those ants be digging tunnels like miners.

We’re going to celebrate toy history, learn about an extinct flower and meet the scientist (live and in person!) who helped bring its smell back to the world!

Looking forward to @wburcityspace Mega Awesome Super Huge Wicked Fun Podcast Playdate!
Mick from @thepastandthecurious will be live onstage on Sunday, April 26th at noon! Get your tickets now on CitySpace website.
