2024 is just four days away, and if you’re anything like us, you’re deep in the depths of the Twixmas time suck.
We thought we’d help out with a quick reminder that it’s Thursday, and season eight of Things That Go Boom is available for your bingeing pleasure.
The season is called "Troubleshooting," and it's focused entirely on online security. We delve into a surprising study about how fish process misinformation, how AI translation is negatively impacting some asylum claims, the climate impact of AI, if it's possible to hack a nuke, and more.
You can find the whole season here.
And if you like the show, consider supporting our work.
It wouldn’t be the end of the year if we didn’t take the chance to remind you that everything we do, work like Things That Go Boom, is possible because of your support.
This year we not only produced two seasons of Things That Go Boom, we also created and published our first two radio specials, giving us an hour of air time on prominent NPR stations like KUCR (Los Angeles), WGBH (Boston), and KUOW (Seattle).
If you’re an Inkstick insider and reading this newsletter, you probably know we’re a small shop, so those hour-long specials are a big, big deal for us.
We’re pretty proud to be punching above our weight. And we want to do more of it in 2024, but we can’t do it without you.
If you’ve considered giving this year, you only have a few more days. It’s tax-deductible and every dollar truly does make a difference.
Happy holidays, happy time suck, and thank you, as always, for all that you do.
