Hello everybody, welcome to the past and the curious, my name is Mick Sullivan, and this

is the penultimate, which is a fancy way to say second to last, the penultimate installment

of The Underwear Chronicles.

I promised 14 stories.

This is story number 13.

There's actually two other stories that will be in the book in addition to a bunch of

other shorter bits and the Underwear Hall of Fame.

You can find in the book, when the book comes out, it's getting really, really close.

We actually, as of November 17th, it is in, it's been, I'm actually waiting the final

proof, so I can see the physical book, which is really, really exciting.

And this week I have spent the entire week reading all of the stories out loud again and

recording them for the audiobook version of I.C. Lincoln's Underpants.

So that is all very close.

If you're listening to this in November, it's going to be out.

If you are listening to this in the future, maybe it's out already.

This episode is about Garrett Morgan, who is someone we've covered in the show before

one of my favorite people of all time.

But this is a much deeper dive and the last time, I think my friend Brian actually narrated

it.

This time it's me with a whole bunch more information.

I can't wait to share it with you.

Garrett Morgan, let's go.
