Tip of the Tongue Episode 344: America&Spain250

As we celebrate all things about the founding of America this year, we can look at the contributions of Spain to the founding of this country. One of the places touched by Spain was New Orleans and the territory of the Louisiana Purchase. The influences from France are often noted when speaking of this history. Those influences from Spain are often less emphasized, but the amount of territory that was influenced by Spain was vast and varied. Listen, it’s on Tip of the Tongue.
