Are you kidding me - Leather Apron Club. I thought you were talking about the masons and those gross aprons they wear. Thanks Fren. I'll definitely check it out.
Benjamin Franklin founded the Leather Apron Club, also known as the Junto, in 1727 in Philadelphia. The club was a group of 12 members, mostly tradesmen and artisans, who met regularly to discuss various topics such as morals, politics, and natural philosophy. The club’s name “Leather Apron Club” came from the fact that many of the members wore leather aprons as part of their work. The group’s purpose was to provide a structured form of mutual improvement, where members could share knowledge and exchange ideas. The Junto Club played a significant role in the development of the American Philosophical Society and contributed to the establishment of various institutions, including the Library Company of Philadelphia.
I subscribed to their youtube channel. Your post is very informative. Are there any clubs like that today as it would be fun to partake in such conversations.
What channel would that be. I'm a bit dumb when it comes to things outside the normal computer use.
