Thanks again Matt, we had a great time! The images you added during our interview gave context and nuance to our discussion. Well done!
Just listened to your podcast featuring Aviation Book Review. An interesting discussion. Not least hearing about the editorial steps. Now about to dive into the archives. Cheers Richard
Love it
One of the best podcasts I have listened to. The podcast captures not only the hardware but as well what the hardware really represents. This isn’t just a missile site but potentially could have been the end of everything.
The SR 71 show was tremendous, entertaining and informative. Great aviation stories and insight on one of the most innovative aircraft ever. This podcast is one of my favorites that never disappoints.
