I Wrote a Thing, and Now You Can Buy It!
This is a project I’ve been working on for a number of years now, and it’s finally come to fruition! My very first novel:
The USS Gerald Ford, a modern-day nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is hosting the family and friends of crew members at the end of a long deployment when they are asked to test a new defensive system for DARPA with help from their British and Japanese allies. After a mysterious accident during the test, the entire battlegroup finds itself at Pearl Harbor on December 6, 1941. The fleet is hopelessly outnumbered, but they do still have some modern technology at their fingertips to help even the odds. The captain has only hours to decide whether or not to strike at the approaching Japanese fleet and change the entire course of World War II, all while trying to figure out what life will look like for the sailors and civilians in their fleet after the battle. -

What I Listened To This Week – 4-17-20
- The Complete Guide to Everything: Tom Reynolds and Tim Daniels discuss Moon conspiracies. Did we ever really land on the moon? Is the moon made out of green cheese? Does the moon even exist in the first place? I don’t believe in the Moon, I think it’s just the back of the Sun.

What Does Perfect Episode Of The Simpsons Looks Like?
They argue it’s Marge vs. The Monorail.
That’s certainly a good example of when the show is running on all cylinders. There are quite a few great episodes that one could point to as a case study, but I’d make a case for Homer vs. the Eighteenth Amendment.

What I Listened To This Week – 4-3-20
- The Sunday Scaries Podcast: The COVID-19 shutdown has now lasted long enough for us to actually develop habits… even bad ones. So they talk about getting out of your coronavirus rut.
- Current Geek: For their monthly film festival episode, Scott and Tom watch Gone with the Wind. Good timing for it, since everyone’s trapped at home and that movie is like six hours long.
- The Political Orphanage: Andrew Heaton talk about what we can expect the next two weeks to be like as the COVID-19 outbreak rages on.
- BONUS: Since we’re all in quarantine, there are a lot of people with a lot more free time on their hands. So quite a few podcasters are trying out daily versions of their show. Most notable for me would be Car Con Carne and Night Attack
