July 27th...Bugs Bunny and Insulin

Here is the latest from The Year Was, which is that thing I do every week. We are up to episode 179. This time we examine the years 1940 as Bugs Bunny is introduced to the world, and 1921 as insulin is isolated for the first time by Dr. Frederick Banting and Charles Best.
