Micro Vs. Macro, Writing Book and My Absence
About this podcast
Forged in the fire of a childhood addiction to mystery, trivia, and answers to questions that are seemingly never asked.
From History, to Mystery, missing persons to the conspiratorial aside. Throw in some eschatology and intrigue, and maybe something interesting comes out the other side.
But generally, I'm appropriating the Genre of "Historical Intrigue."
