We're busy working on a way the next season of Smash Boom Best (coming back in May!) but until then we wanted to let you know that our history show Forever Ago is back with new episodes RIGHT NOW.
Join fan favorite debater Joy Dolo and co-host Luke as they learn about the origins of the Teddy Bear and find out about a stuffed possum that should’ve been the next big toy craze, but never caught on.

[upbeat music] Hi, friends. You may have heard that Mark and Sanden and I are on the road with Brains On Live. We've had so much fun, seen so many of you in person, and we are so looking forward to our upcoming stops. Our next two stops are in Chattanooga and Durham, North Carolina. That's April 11th and 12th. And then we have some exciting news. San Francisco and Toronto were sold out, so we added second shows in those cities. So San Francisco and Toronto, tickets are available again. We're also going to be going to Portland; Lawrence, Kansas; Buffalo, New York; Ann Arbor, Michigan; Columbus, Ohio; and Milwaukee, Wisconsin. We cannot wait to see all of you. If you'd like tickets or more info, head to brainson.org/events. That's brainson.org/events. We can't wait to see you.

Hi, friends. It's me, Molly. We are busy working on a whole batch of new Smash Boom Best episodes. We can't wait for you to hear them. We'll be back in May with those new episodes. But in the meantime, we wanted you to know that Forever Ago, our history show, is back with new episodes right now. So we wanted to share this episode all about the history of teddy bears and another little fella named Billy Possum, who didn't quite catch on. It's hosted by everyone's favorite debater, Joy Dolo.
