Sipapalooza

Sipapalooza is a lively audio podcast hosted by historian and storyteller Scott Cardinal (Strange History Cafe). Each episode features wide-ranging conversations — sometimes solo monologues, sometimes with fascinating guests — that blend sharp humor, deep dives, and plenty of unexpected tangents. Expect eclectic explorations of strange and beautiful homes, historic gardens, architecture, and overlooked slices of history, alongside pop culture discussions on art, music, movies, The Beatles, the Golden Age of Hollywood, and the Gilded Age. The show also tackles current events and bigger questions about life, culture, and even the universe itself.If you enjoy thoughtful commentary with a curious, slightly irreverent edge — where history meets modern life in surprising ways — Sipapalooza is your new go-to podcast.
