Our exploration of history's more bizarre and odd floods includes stops in London, Dublin, and Boston. As we return to the 22nd century we explore a cheesy situation in Norway, a juicy stop in Russia, and end with an unexpected red river in Portugal.  As we towel off, we contemplate the lessons learned on this week's adventures.      Tune in to find out more.   The Good Old Days is produced by What A Concept Productions.
