On this episode of Our American Stories, Bill Toti tells us the story of his experience with Admiral Hyman Rickover and the impact he had in the Navy. Chris Siriano of the House of David Museum in Saint Joe, MI, tells the story of how a band of religious misfits ended up in along the shores of Lake Michigan and used their massive amounts of wealth to invent everything from the waffle cone, to food taken up into outer space by astronauts—all while creating an amusement park that even Walt Disney would take inspiration from.
