I’ve said it thousands of times and I’ll continue to say it. There are a lot of people who think Mexicans (actually all Hispanics) only exist for labor.

Remember, if you or someone you know has/is written/writing a book on the Second World War (broad definition) hit me up. There is a good chance I would like to talk with them.

I can't promise riches and glory, but I can generally say that thousands of people are waiting to hear about the book.
Yesterday I released the latest interview for the pod (50!). I chatted with Robert Forsyth about his recent book Defenders of the Reich for @ospreypublishing.bsky.social

Some of the most interesting answers I have ever gotten from historians during podcasts have been the result of me asking how their views on the topic of their research has changed over the course of that research. A non-specific question like that seems to so often result in an interesting answer.

The Pioneer League continued its westward shift with the addition of the Modesto Glow Riders, whose brand pays tribute to low rider car culture and the 1973 film American Graffiti. Read about it on @sportslogosnet at news.sportslogos.net/2025/11/15/p...

On this day in 1942, the Second Naval Battle of Guadalcanal was fought. A Japanese squadron of one battleship, two heavy cruisers and eleven destroyers were sent to bombard Henderson Field, the crucial airstrip held by the US on the island. 🧵

Sometimes I think about the question someone put on the bad site, asking women how old they were the first time an adult man came on to them or made a sexually suggestive remark to them. I want to say the vast majority of us were between 11 and 13.

I've been thinking about it a lot today.

Putting all my money in baseball cards is one of the more savvy financial decisions I’ve made
When the world stops trusting your money, the fall comes fast.

• Massive debt & reckless spending are shaking investor confidence
• Foreign banks are quietly moving away from the dollar
• Countries are trading in other currencies—dedollarization is real

The US dollar’s dominance isn’t guaranteed.

The last allied soldier to be killed on the Western Front in 1918 was American Henry Gunther; at 10:59am on the 11th he charged astonished Germans who knew the armistice was only seconds away.
