P.T. Barnum was born in Bethel, CT and is the brains behind the world famous Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus. Most people in our area know at least that much. There s a lot more about the man and most of the highlights of his life came well before the circus.
We have a new feature on the Ethan and Lou Show called: The Place You Live. We do it every Tuesday morning between 8 and 9 am on I-95. The segment research and stories come courtesy of Mike Allen.
Mike was the News Director at I-95 many years ago and Ethan and I thought he d be a great resource to help us learn more about the places we all live. On Tuesday (2/15/21) Mike focused his energies and attention on Bethel, CT and P.T. Barnum and we learned a lot.
