87. George Washington and the Ghosts of Mount Vernon
Dignified people die dignified deaths. Unless you’re George Washington, in which case your last 26 hours are absolute insanity. It’s the American history that THEY won’t tell you — the true story of how George Washington died! And believe us when we tell you, you are not prepared. Unless you already know how he died. Then you are very adequately prepared.
This is the story of George Washington and the ghosts of Mount Vernon. Come for the ghosts, stay for the tea babies, pee tape tooth, new not wet stuff, inside you are four gross wolves, the mysterious fifth humour (umami), and woof woof turn around.
