Whatsoever I've feared has come to life
And whatsoever I've fought off became my life
Just when everyday seemed to greet me with a smile
Sunspots have faded, now I'm doing time
Now I'm doing time

'Cause I fell on black days
I fell on black days

Did the Apollo 13 crew ever think they were not going to make it? Apollo 13 author Jeffrey Kluger asked Jim Lovell and told me his thoughts.

If @drkarenlcox.bsky.social can have imposter syndrome, then you can apply for the job, ask that person out, or write your damn book. Go do the things. But first listen to this podcast.

Reading @edmorales.bsky.social to tape on the pod Friday and this is just body blow after body blow. Cannot remember reading something with so much conviction. Goodness, y’all. Cannot wait.
November 5, 2025 at 8:36 PM
Headed to the Southern? @drkarenlcox.bsky.social sat down with me for a very real and very raw conversation about her life, the challenges that made her, and where we need to go as historians. This is about as unfiltered as it gets. Like and share if you dig it.

This week Historians At The Movies talks about something not relevant at all. Join us on Netflix this Sunday, November 9 at 8pm eastern for A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE.

Keep #HATM growing by sharing and we’ll see you soon!
