Just finished listening to the Witch Trials of JK Rowling and was delighted to hear you on it. You’re awesome. Thank you for doing what you do.

Finished it yesterday. Superb. Just when you think you can't admire JK Rowling more. And yes, Helen was excellent (as she always is) on it too.

Re: HIGNFY, I watched the Eurovision Song Contest once in the 90s, coming down off acid. This is the first time since then I’ve had a comparable experience.

7- One of the (many) aspects of the Bluestocking I adore is the variety and depth of what you reveal..and then the subsequent flights of fancy once absorbed.

With the emphasis over the past year on supplying Ukraine with military hardware, it has been really interesting to gain an understanding of the criticality of logistical and ancillary supply chain across those Allied thus far.

Also as a velvet fan myself, I enjoyed it's origin story too!

Israel's Strategic Crisis. One more thing to add to that crisis is that mere days after a pogrom, it had to endure virtually the entire Western MSM jumping with alacrity at the chance to spread some patently mendacious and manipulative propaganda about the Gaza hospital tragedy. Hamas has obviously figured out that nothing is too absurd for the Western MSM to fall for just as long as it has a whiff of anti-Western-civilisation about it. The grovelling MSM apologies have of course not been so forthcoming.
