The Memory Palace is a proud member of\xa0Radiotopia, a collective of independently owned and operated podcasts.
\n\nA note on shownotes. In a perfect world, you go into each episode of the Memory Palace knowing nothing about what's coming. It's pretentious, sure, but that's the intention. So, if you don't want any spoilers or anything, you can click play without reading ahead.
\n\nAnyway...

Notes
\n\nThere's a lot written about Kelly and his times, none more enjoyable than Bill Bryson's in\xa0One Summer: America, 1927.
The best academic book that touches on Kelly and his times is\xa0Dance Marathons: Performing American Culture in the 1920s and 30s, by Carol Martin.
