Latest @stephenhupp.bsky.social @skepticalinquirer.bsky.social editorial features a hefty plug for @shwood.com’s truly excellent World’s Greatest Con (season 3) telling of the “Project Alpha” story, which I also strongly recommend—it’s a heck of a listen, including new reappraisal for those familiar
