THAT WAS NORMAL?

Everyday life used to be very strange.

THAT WAS NORMAL? is about the ordinary habits, jobs and objects that people once took completely for granted. Paying a man to tap on your bedroom window so you would wake up for work. Bricking up your own windows to avoid a tax. Sailing ice across an ocean before anyone owned a freezer.

Every episode starts with one plain question, answers it from real historical sources, and then stays for the details that make you say: they really did that?

Original hand-drawn animation, dry humor, and no clickbait — just the history behind the things we stopped noticing.

Short episodes and longer illustrated documentaries.
