ABC#058 Big Pharma & Laurel Hill: The Beginnings
Several multi-billion-dollar pharmaceutical companies got their starts in Philadelphia as neighborhood drug stores.

BONUS: Anna Weightman Penfield and the Fioretta Follies
Anna Weightman Penfield, the only daughter of quinine king William Weightman, became the richest woman in the world when her father died. In 1929 when she was in her 80s, she decided that she wanted to produce a Broadway musical featuring songs by two young friends. She even managed to convince impresario Earl Carroll, the so-called “troubadour of the nude”, to write the book and produce it. He called it “Fioretta”.

Epsiode 340: Frances O'Connor & Abel Korzeniowski On The Music Of Emily
There are so many cracking releases at the moment, we getting as much out to you as we can in something of a festive giveaway. We dropped Michael Giacchino earlier in the week, and now we bring you Frances O'Connor and Abel Korzeniowski, who joined me to discuss Emily. Frances wrote and directed the film, while Abel provided the score. It's a fictionalised version of the life of Emily Bronte, and concentrates on her romantic relationship with the curate William Weightman - there is no evidence that such a relationship ever occurred.

In this episode, I play history detective and offer a theory about what that note said and why it ended the case so quickly.
