Last week’s: Before Too Long, by Paul Kelly
This week’s: An Extraordinary Life, by Asia (this one via Reconcilable Differences).

One word: this!
Edit: Kev Quirk shared a link to the post by Sarah Joy, who wrote the narration for this video.
Really enjoyed the conversation between Sam Harris and George Saunders. I’ve not read anything from Saunders, but they had quite an insightful discussion about writing and culture (and a hint of politics) that it might be worth looking at some of his fiction. 🎙️
📺 Fallout: Season 1 (2024)
Must say I enjoyed The Rest Is History’s recent podcast on Dragons. They go into how these mythical beasts developed over the years, how they’re seen differently in different cultures, and how they entered the mainstream. Just watch out for the odd spoiler for House of the Dragon series 1. 🎙️
I found this video on the failure of the Star Wars Hotel by Jenny Nicholson to be absolutely fascinating. A great example of Disney enshittification and promising more then they can deliver. Many of her other videos are great as well (I actually went on a binge session over the weekend). 📺

Discovered another YouTube channel about Victorian railways this evening. This one’s more about history and operations and less pure cab-rides. A lot of fascinating information about locations that I’m very familiar with.
