Episode 023—This Episode Sponsored By… (feat. Linze Rice)

Maybe she's born with it, maybe she was founded in Chicago. Writer and entrepreneur, Linze Rice, comes on to tell us about Thomas Lyle Williams, founder of Maybelline & then Cass takes us on a journey through jingles... and yet this episode isn't sponsored at all.

Though we’re open to it. Contact us at sharedhistorypodcast@gmail.com to explore sponsorship opportunities!
