概要

Step into a courtroom that time forgot: in Kentucky, every public official must swear they never fought a duel — a relic of 1800s honor culture that still decides who can run for office. With a wink at Hamilton and Burr, the episode opens like a legal melodrama where perjury and pistols shape political fate.

We roam from the oddly humane ban on selling dyed chicks at Easter to Lexington’s old ordinance against dumping wash water from balconies, each law a small story about fear, custom, and control. By the time we land in Louisiana and joke that Jambalaya ought to be above the law, you’ll be hooked on these surprising statutes and the human histories they hide.
