Shortly after 8:00 AM on the morning of the 7th of August, 1974, something happened in New York City that has been called the artistic crime of the century. What was it? 📍 The original Birkin bag was sold by Sotheby’s at auction not so long ago for over US$10 million. Who was Birkin and why the big fuss over her handbag? 📍 Listeners with kids will know all about The Elf on a Shelf. Unlike the long established tradition of Santa Claus, this one is pretty new. Not everyone is happy about it. We’ll explain. 📍 And finally, in this episode, are you a collector of souvenirs? If so, you’re not alone. The practice of souveniring goes way back to ancient times. We’ll give you some history.
