Shownotes

In the 1800s, if you were born with a deformity or an illness that caused you to look a little different others, then you was classed as a freak. 

One guy, called P.T Barnum ‘collected’ these ‘freaks’ and put them on public display and people paid to see these 'freaks' entertain.

You may have heard of the name P.T Barnum from the very popular movie, The Greatest Showman.
