    I found one just called the Civil War. To date there are 35 ~30 minutes episodes about Gettysburg alone :warn:

    I really loved "Ghost in the Wires" audiobook, so I'll give that a try.

    Triton, Ep68

    There are technical details that I didn't understand but the storytelling was good enough that it didn't matter really

    i haven't tried it yet. the Revolutions podcast is doing the Russian Revolution and they're like 50 episodes into the series and just now getting to Rasputin and 1917, so I imagine it's like that

    Essentially yes. They’re halfway through the war at this point. I believe they spent ~20-30 episodes laying the foundation for the events leading up to the war and then dove in. They cover all theaters, etc. They have gotten very granular in the last year or two. I’ve paused so I can hit all the Gettysburg episodes in succession without waiting for weekly drops.

    Officially started listening to this pod starting with episode 1 yesterday -- it's fantastic. The VTech episode was phenomenal, and it poses some interesting questions about cyber security and laws.

    Will Arnett, Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes. Will and Jason don't know who the guest is for the show until Sean Hayes introduces them. It's basically Arnett and Bateman roasting each other and then the guest comes on. Pretty funny. I listened to the Steven Colbert and George Clooney episode and got some good laughs.

    Apparently all the forensic files episode have made me numb to that stuff... still pretty sad

    Wild story.

    The part about the probation officer not approving suboxone kinda cracked me up. The guy clearly had an addiction and the narrator seemed naive to that. The probation officer was probably a huge dick, but that guy did everything an untrustworthy junkie would do.

    He took klonopin for anxiety and smoked pot... I remember hearing that, but I could've missed something else

    My only gripe was how the narrator phrased it. Like he took sides against the probation officer for not granting suboxone approval

    for anyone who cares about some context on "CliffyB": he is Cliff Blezinksi, one of the best game developers ever. also one of the biggest nerds on the planet

    i had this magazine at some point. he is on the far right:

    Funny to see discussion on Cliff here - he's a Raleigh legend at this point. He likes to park his Lambo on the street in Raleigh's nightlife district (which naturally draws a lot of attention).

    For those of you who've been, he owns the Raleigh and Charlotte Beer Gardens. Each location has like 600 beers on tap.

    Dark Air with Terry Carnation isn’t great. Not sure what I expected, but not quite this. Probably means Radio Rental isn’t coming back, at least with Rainn Wilson. I was hoping dark air would be radio rental stories framed in more Terry Carnation character development.
