Media Consumption 11/9/2024

Well, that was a horrendous week. Not only politically but also with work and family stuff.

So, the media I have been consuming:

I'm reading a biography of Thomas Edison: Edison by Edmund Morris. It's an interesting book because it is written backwards: Each section details a decade of Edison's life, and Morris starts with the final decade and works his way back. The verdict's out on whether this will be too confusing, but I do appreciate the fact that the top of the page displays the current year. I wish more history books did that.

I'm watching and enjoying Agatha All Along. I may have more thoughts once it ends.

The podcast I listen to, You're Wrong About, has an episode on Elizabeth Báthory. It's a historical episode and I am really enjoying it.

I haven't gotten around to finishing it, but it is quite good so far!

I like that they did a Bathory episode for the American election. Only halfway through though and wishing for more specific info.

I hadn't thought of the election connection! What info specifically were you missing?
