There are 2 kinds of people in my life: Those who feel anxious when they hear I have 3,654 unread emails in my inbox, and those that don’t.

Great piece from @EFredMT on The American Buffalo, the highly anticipated new documentary from @KenBurns that features many luminaries from the MT Indigenous community. Marking my calendar for October! montanafreepress.org/2023/05…

Looking forward to hearing @kemc talk about her new book at Missoula Public Library tonight. Loved chatting with her for @mtfreepress about her socioeconomic dig into why we live in a country where Americans sell their plasma to get by. montanafreepress.org/2023/03…

Long time ago, on this day, a guy was kidnapped, drug behind a car until his kneecaps came off, and then hanged to death. It was one brutal night in a much bigger saga we tell in our podcast. It's immodest to say, but our trailer still gives me the chills. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcas…

Just ate a DQ chili cheese dog, Girl Scout thin mints blizzard, and McDonalds fries to celebrate my right to put whatever I want into my body. Almost as good as reproductive rights. Thanks America.

We won an award! Pretty cool.
We learned today that Death in the West, season one was selected as a 2022 Award of Excellence winner by the American Association for State and Local History. I am just a simple journalist, but I'm told this is kind of a big deal. We are honored & humbled by the recognition.

Death in the West is back, and this one takes place up in the air!
On episode one, we meet Richard Floyd McCoy Jr., a Mormon Sunday school teacher and decorated Vietnam veteran whose obsession with skyjacking cases took him to some very weird places in April, 1972. It begins ... Apple: apple.co/3znc7O0 Spotify: spoti.fi/3EVQiGz

Because I’m a person who keeps old Xeroxed articles in my files, I’ve carried around (for decades) this scathing review by @ivan_goldman of my hometown of Missoula, copied from a 1980 issue of Oui. Last time I read it, there was no Twitter. Here I offer you some choice lines:

And finally: “The significant conflict of our age is not between Moscow and Wall Street or between the East Coast and West Coast or between the owners and the players. It’s between Civilization and Missoula.”
