The Road to Year Zero #1 - Cold Open
As promised, I am expanding my own nano-Vertically Integrated Messaging Apparatus into another medium: a podcast, or rather a series of podcasts organized under three different rubrics.* The Road to Year Zero: A micro-documentary series revisiting the great and petty episodes on the path to ideological succession from the recent and distant American past * Syllabus, for paid subscribers only, in which I will do a deep dive into an academic subject with a subject matter expert* Books Do Furnish A Mind, in which I speak with a notable or merely fascinating person about one book that exercised a formative influence on themYear Zero episode 1 is just a wee little anecdote. It say only a little bit, but strives to do so with verve. An invitation to spend countless hours with my voice reverberating in your earbuds, and a foretaste of what that will be like. Listen on Substack or subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts: Apple | Spotify | Google | RSS.A full transcript is available for paid subscribers. This is a public episode.
