For the most significant story you've ever covered, one would think you would have brought on someone who actually believes in the story they're telling.

I wish you would do an episode on "Matewan," which is arguably the bloodiest gunfight in American history. My book, "The Nine Lives of Charles E. Lively: The Deadliest Man in the West Virginia-Colorado Coal Mine Wars," can add some great context to the film. I just recently discovered your podcast and enjoy it greatly! Thanks. R.G.

- Bastogne is in Belgium not in Germany 😉 You make it sound like it's in Germany on the border with Belgium. It's in fact several kilometres away from the border with Germany.
