We're promoting Stu's new book, Fernsehturm Berlin, a mix of memoir, historical imagination, and chaotic rumination this week while also discussing the dreaded Cuban Missile Crisis, the moment in the Cold War that perhaps brought us closest to nuclear armageddon. Was Curtis LeMay correct in his estimation that the resolution of this conflict was "the greatest defeat in the history of the United States," or were there, perhaps, even greater defeats past and to come? We also touch on the utterly boring Costner-starring cinematic depiction of these events in 2000's 13 Days.
This episode contains spoilers for the Cuban Missile Crisis.
