    About 9 years ago I guested on a podcast about Christopher Columbus. I read 4 books in preparation. I took several semesters of Latin American history in college but discovered my passion too late to get a double major lol.

    Anyway I had PAGES of shit. So many myths I was going to dispel, dozens of citations, this was going to be my magnum opus, my one brush with academia.

    I then got super trashed with the hosts and repeatedly said “Columbus was a dick” so many times they never published the episode. We were all too fucked up and screaming to make something serviceable lol
