Lollipops | Differing Origin Stories, Salvador Dali, and Ear Worms (TSB096)

From Egyptians eating honey on sticks to today’s modern-day confections, this subject of this episode is kicking off a series that will hopefully lead us into Halloween with a sweet twist. Just to warn you, there are some ear worms in this episode, so take my advice and if you happen to get a song stuck in your head, as I have since researching it, sing a Queen song. That always helps me. I’m your host, Emily Prokop, and this is The Story Behind Lollipops. Join The Story Behind Discussion Group on Facebook!
