Sitting in the garden listening to
educated, knowledgeable talk in the world and the future of mankind. It’s long, but has handy bookmarks. Dan is super famous for his “Hardcore History” podcasts that I’ve listened to from years ago. Loved his deep dive into the Mongol conquests. He’s an old timer, podcasting since 2005, one of the first.
One stick-in-the-mind thing about war, from Dan: “no one who has not been within a hundred yards of the front line, knows what war is about”.
And, talking of the Cuban Missile crisis, how one man held the lives of 100 million people in his hands, and made the right decision.
