Warbreaker Ep3
September 19, 2019 03:23 - 51 minutes - 117 MBWell we are done with our anniversary series, and I'm comfortable saying that it lived up to our internal hype. Hopefully it lived up to your own, if you had any. Also, if you didn't already know, Pizza Hut teamed up with Cheez It to make this "Pizza Stuffed Cheez It Pizza" and it's pretty dope go try it. I ate one while I edited this episode. This episode was recorded the evening of 9.18.19. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ears-stamps/support
Warbreaker Ep2
September 11, 2019 22:26 - 44 minutes - 102 MBI pose, to you, a question - There is 6 seconds left in the game. Your opponent has possession, and one remaining timeout. You are one point ahead, which means your opponent needs only a field goal to win. They are only seven yards away from their kicker's FG range. What do you do, defensively? I'll tell you what you should do, almOST ANYTHING OTHER THAN PREVENT DEFENSE GARBAGE LIKE THE TEXANS DID MONDAY NIGHT. WHAT THE SHIT. Fire the whole defensive staff. Anyways, this book is getting prett...

The Raven Tower Ep2
August 28, 2019 06:00 - 34 minutes - 80 MBHonestly the only thing I have been able to think about for days now is how much Andrew Luck retiring has thrown my drafting strategy. But, you know, maybe if his franchise had given him a better offensive line, he wouldn't have been beaten to the point of no return. The Colts owe him his projected career salary. Oh yeah, we finished a book. Next week is the anniversary episode! This episode was recorded the afternoon of 8.27.19. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod...

Chernobyl
August 15, 2019 02:52 - 57 minutes - 131 MBWhat may be an underrated effect of media becoming so high quality, is the ability to tell stories in a compelling and evocative fashion that wasn't available before. The difference in researching a catastrophic event, and experiencing a catastrophic event, is story-telling. This miniseries is an example of that.

July 25, 2019 04:37 - 1 hour - 232 MBHoly shit so much is going on it I could literally have a day long anxiety attack over it all and honestly I'm not even mentioning the book I literally had a day long anxiety attack today. I am so glad I finished the section of reading yesterday. Imagine two day long anxiety attacks in the same day.
