Welcome to bewildered. I'm Martha Beck here with Rowan Mangan. At this crazy moment in history,

0:09.2

a lot of people are feeling bewildered, but that actually may be a sign we're on track.

and somehow that led to her figuring it out. Well, yeah, I mean, forts in general are the place

1:53.7

where you figure it out. Yeah, like the battle of the Alamo, for example, the Alamo was a fort

if you don't, if you're Australian and you don't know. I should learn about this for my six.

2:03.8

Everybody does. And that's the problem. There were people there. They figured it all out.

2:07.5

This is the problem with forts. They figured people go in there. They figure things out and then

2:11.4

everyone kills them. I feel like we just started this podcast about 10 seconds ago and already
