I'm Ben Nadefaffrey, host of the history show The Last Archive, and I want to tell you about a new series we're running in our feed.

It's called The Dead Line. Six essays written and read by Jill Lepore,

the New Yorker writer, American historian, and founding host of our show.

These are incredible essays on everything from the history of Cryogenics to the Silicon Valley

Gospel of Disruption.

And at the end of each essay I interview Jill

about her craft as a writer. You can listen on the I-Heart radio app, Apple

Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Third Hour, Clay and Vox podcasts.
