Gum Wall
Manage episode 415155400 series 2427058
today we’re taking a dive into a well known sticky, and slightly smelly, local oddity in Seattle.

Among strangers saliva, you can find history, myth, and even the occasional controversy. Let’s peel back some of those layers of gum together, and try to get to the bottom of what’s fact, and what is fiction.
