0:00.0	Hey revisionist history listeners, Malcolm here. Before we get started, I wanted to update
0:14.2	you on a few things. First thing, this August 24th, the revisionist history season begins
0:21.2	in earnest. Eight old school episodes in a row. The little narrative jewel boxes you've
0:27.9	come to love. We've been feeding you a little bits and pieces so far this season. But this
0:33.2	is the main event. The heart of it is a six part series on guns and violence that I think
0:38.2	is my favorite thing we've ever done. We are moving funny, heartbreaking, so mark your
0:43.9	calendars. August 24th is when it all happens. And by the way, if you want to get that whole
0:50.2	mini series early and binge it all at once without ads, you can. Just by becoming a push
0:55.8	can plus subscriber. In fact, just six 99 a month or 39, 99 a year gets you every one
1:03.8	of the pushkin shows early and ad free. Just go to the revisionist history show page in
1:09.1	Apple podcasts or pushkin.fm slash plus to sign up. And one last thing, speaking of
1:16.6	things you should binge, the latest season of our true crime masterpiece, Lost Hales has
1:22.0	dropped. The new season explores the legacy of Malibu's dark prints, Mickey Dora. Mickey
1:28.1	was a surfer known for his style, grace and aggression who ruled the Malibu beaches
1:33.0	from the 1950s to the 1970s, celebrated for his rebellious spirit. He was also a con man
1:40.2	who led the FBI on a seven year man out around the world. Believe me, this is a show worth
1:45.2	to listen. So sign up for pushkin plus and you can binge this one too. A couple of weeks
1:53.3	ago, one of my producers, Ben that have half free, came by the office because he had a story
1:58.8	to tell me. Ben, welcome, welcome to Hudson New York. Thank you for having me in Hudson New
2:04.5	York. Ben just took over writing and hosting a pushkin show I love called The Last Archive,
2:10.3	a show about the history of truth. Jill Lapor used to host it. Ben's worked on it since
2:14.9	the beginning. He's always digging around in the stacks of some old library. And one
