I'm not trying to pander to you.

I'm not.

I'm just telling you.

The thing shows up, the thing showed up at our house yesterday, and we have a whole conversation about this cover.

Whoever made that cover,

gorgeous.

I'm ready for the roast.

Well, I mean, you probably have to go back even before nineteen twenty nine.

To get fully there, but you know, the 1920s, people talk about the GoGo 20s and this sort of remarkable period.

It was probably one of the most transformational generations of our time from a technological perspective: automobiles, telecommunications, radio.

And the other magic ingredient was credit, the opportunity for people to get loans to go buy stuff.

And originally it started

With buying cars and appliances from, you know, uh all sorts of different stores and things like that.

And then Wall Street caught on and started offering people loans so you could go buy stock.

And that was really

What changed everything in terms of how stock trading in America became almost like a national pastime.

So you had the a market that just sort of roared in the craziest way from 1920, the beginning of 1928 to September 1929, it was up 90%.

And this was like free money for most people.

And then of course the crash happens.
