Chapter 45: Faith, Fashion, Food, and Football

The second of two episodes devoted to the cultural changes underway in the 18th and 19th Centuries, thanks (at least in part) to the Industrial Revolution. First we’ll explore the so-called Second Great Awakening, which spurred a diversity of religious traditions in the United States. Then we’ll discuss the impact of industrialization on fashion trends (and vice versa). Next, we’ll talk about the changing diets of ordinary people in the late 18th and early 19th Centuries. Finally, we’ll wrap up with the history of football.  Check out my interview on the Human Capital Innovations Podcast: https://anchor.fm/hcipodcast/episodes/S5E21---The-History-of-Industrial-Revolutions--the-Transition-of-Human-Capital--and-the-Shifting-Future-of-Work--with-Dave-Broker-ehc6am/a-a2521bh Support the Industrial Revolutions on Patreon: https://patreon.com/indrevpod This episode is sponsored by the Techmeme Ride Home Podcast: https://www.ridehome.info/podcast/techmeme-ride-home/
