The Past and The Curious: A History Podcast for Kids and Families [Mick Sullivan]
Mick Sullivan created The Past and The Curious in 2016 and it is both a privilege and a labor of love. Since the beginning, many friends have joined the fun. We create the show in between family, work, gigs, and the many other commitments we’ve all got in our lives. We really think people will find value and joy in what we do, and no one else is doing something quite like it – so we create.
Maybe someday The Past and The Curious will help us earn a living, instead of costing our discretionary income. But more importantly, maybe you will enjoy it and share that excitement about the past with others.
