Listen "All the Tenuous Connections"
Episode Synopsis
Sometimes a conversation is full of… how can I say this? Tenuous connections. Abrupt changes of topic, subject matter, and tone is often the way a real-life conversation goes. And this week, Dave and I are joined by our friends Nick Rynerson and Richard Clark to talk about, well, pretty much everything—including their new podcast network, Area Code. Listen in as we discuss: Conspiracy theories and the power of the word "Consider" to make anything sound sinister Finding the Dark Web What is the Area Code Network and why are we talking about it on our show? Why Nick needs to read our meeting requests How good a job I'm doing at being my own executive assistant A few of the books we mentioned on this episode
