Very happy to hear the hosts of the @RecDiffs podcast talking at length about my time on the @notsmartblog podcast. (@hotdogsladies and @siracusa - If you guys want to to talk more about the story I told to @davidmcraney or the ideas underlying it, I'd be glad to do that)

The diary-writer Merlin @hotdogsladies was referring to is (pretty sure) Robert Shields. Extraordinary story of “The World’s Longest Diary” storycorps.org/listen/worlds… Broadcast in 1994 on NPR Morning Edition. (For my 1996 PhD dissertation on autonomy, I wrote to NPR for transcript.)

@hotdogsladies @siracusa @RecDiffs Lady is the magic train in “Thomas and the Magic Railroad”, the cringey American movie adaption of the original TV show. The magic and special coal she needs must account for her raw power.

The Six Fax Machine ep (The Future) of @RecDiffs is the equivalent of early The Incomparable doing “career of Joss Whedon” in one episode.

@RecDiffs "you made me cry about a Pontiac, you dick" is my favorite line of the show to this point.
