Kristy tells Amber the story of Mary Avery, a little girl with the best nickname ever. Mary tore up the streets of San Francisco in the late 1800s, and in doing so she stole our hearts--and lots of other stuff.  Note that our Patrons got even more from this episode, as the tale of Mary Avery was shorter than preferred--so the second half, in which Kristy regales Amber with fascinating tidbits from the old timey newspapers, is just for our patrons. You, too, can be a patron for just $5 a month, over on Patreon!  Sources:  Bob Calhoun in SF Weekly. Gary Kamiya on SF Chronicle.
