Getting towards the end of American Crusade, can’t recommend this book enough. Corruption. Greed. Indoctrination. SCOTUS needs a complete reboot, what a bunch of snakes.
Currently reading American Crusade by @andrewlseidel.bsky.social. Can’t put it down, fascinating stuff.

These are two of my favorite things! Mary Roach writes excellent books, very much worth checking out. Daniel & Kelly’s Extraordinary Universe is OBVIOUSLY my fave podcast. Listen. Read. Both?!?!?!
Y'all! On today's show we have Kelly's absolute favorite pop-science author, @maryroach.bsky.social! We talk to her about when animals break the law, and adventures/misadventures she has had while doing book research.
