“She was Joan of Arc, Madame Curie, and Florence Nightingale - all wrapped up in one.”
One long, hot afternoon on Capitol Hill, in the summer of 1991, the most powerful man in Congress took on the most powerful person in American science. Science won. What does it take to end a reign of terror? The science fraud panic of the 1990s, part two of two.

ABOUT REVISIONIST HISTORY
Revisionist History is Malcolm Gladwell’s journey through the overlooked and the misunderstood. Every podcast episode re-examines something from the past - an event, a person, an idea, even a song - and asks whether we got it right the first time. Because sometimes the past deserves a second chance.

Oh please oh, please when you’re doing multipart podcasts, could you please include part one or part two or part three in the title? I am an old geezer without that much time to spare to search for them.

[@ML-rz2hb]

Why would you not give the name of the first part?! Label them Part One and Part Two and the world becomes a simpler place. Or not. Hell, let them guess.

[@rumidude]

Exactly! This type of thing feels almost willful on their part.

Jane Austen often wrote long, rambling sentences. As did Nabokov, Thackery, Goethe, Rousseau, Rabelais, Shakespeare and many other writers who are ten million times better than this skinny, hukster of easy fraud. But my favorite long sentence guy is Cervantes - if you can read it in Spanish it's better, but here's in the English translation of a very long and perfect sentence that is the dedication of the novel (there is so much elegant irony and humor here it's perfect): In belief of the good reception and honours that Your Excellency bestows on all sort of books, as prince so inclined to favor good arts, chiefly those who by their nobleness do not submit to the service and bribery of the vulgar, I have determined bringing to light The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of la Mancha, in shelter of Your Excellency’s glamorous name, to whom, with the obeisance I owe to such grandeur, I pray to receive it agreeably under his protection, so that in this shadow, though deprived of that precious ornament of elegance and erudition that clothe the works composed in the houses of those who know, it dares appear with assurance in the judgment of some who, trespassing the bounds of their own ignorance, use to condemn with more rigour and less justice the writings of others.

Body shaming, bro. Really serves to undermine the otherwise intellectual content of your comment.

[@KlingbergWingMkII]

Some of the best content on YT yet if you were doing hair and makeup you'd have an order of magnitude more subscribers. Sad, very sad. But, please keep up the good fight.

How does Gladwell see the unfounded hysteria & panic driving this case & the Belgian Coca-Cola case, but totally buys the official version of AIDS & Covid?
