You're listening to an Airwave Media podcast.

Grownups, if there's a child in your life who is interested in, curious about, or fascinated by people and places from history, then my podcast, the past and the curious, might just be a hit in your home.

From the invention of microscopes to world-traveling dogs, to fashions of the 1890s, gold rush ghost towns, and audiences going wild for walking competitions,

we've got a little bit of it all.

Hosted by children's author and museum educator Mick Sullivan, that's me, the show is

fun, funny, engaging, honest, and beloved by kids and parents alike.

Find the past and the curious at all the usual podcast places.

Every Sunday, we recap the week's tech news with the smartest people in the business.

Joining me this Sunday, Kathy Gellis, Attorney at Law, Harper-Reed AI Guru,

and Brian McCullough from the TechBrew Ride Home.

We'll talk about the big meta-social media decision.

Is it the end of the line for social media?

We'll talk about AI and why you should give your AI agents some free time and a whole lot more.

Look forward to twit.tv or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to the age of Napoleon.

Episode 136, The Stumbling Colossus.

Thanks for joining me.

As always, before we get started, I'd like to thank our Patreon supporters.

As far as I know, this is the longest and most detailed popular history of the Napoleonic era ever created,

and certainly the only one that is available to anyone for free.

I'm not bringing this up to brag. This project is only possible because of the internet,

both the medium of podcasting and the direct financial support of the audience through Patreon.

This formula has allowed me and others to do things that would simply have not been feasible a generation ago.
