So I Pimped It at the Derp and I'll Do It Here

As the alternative is giving money to Zuckerberg, and fuck that guy. Anyway, this is the podcast I'm doing about Preston Tucker.

Thanks, and assuming that things go well with it and the whole plague business ends, I could use an engineer to consult with on some things. The engineering documents for the Tucker Corporation still survive and are in a museum in PA. (But not online.) Some of the stuff in them I'm sure I'll be able to figure out but others of them I won't and it'd be nice to be able to float them past an engineer who could translate them into English. If you're interested, let me know.

I don't know much yet about Tucker and I haven't had the chance to listen to the entire podcast -- but dude, you have a very pleasant speaking voice that is relaxing to listen to. I'll come back to it later when I need to drown out my MIL's yelling that she wants to go home.
