The Berlin Wall has just come down. The Soviet Union is on the verge of collapse. A heavy metal band from West Germany, the Scorpions, releases a power ballad, “Wind of Change.” The song becomes the soundtrack to the peaceful revolution sweeping Europe — and one of the biggest rock singles ever. According to some fans, it’s the song that ended the Cold War. Decades later, New Yorker writer Patrick Radden Keefe hears a rumor from a source: the Scorpions didn’t actually write “Wind of Change.” The CIA did... 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
n_maher 11,213 Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Good idea for a thread. I'll be listening to the one that you posted. One of my favorites - https://www.hdtgminfo.com/ Quote Have you ever seen a movie so bad that it’s amazing? Paul Scheer, June Diane Raphael and Jason Mantzoukas want to hear about it!

TMoney 3,580 Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 (edited) I've enjoyed Michael Lewis' Against the Rules podcast the past two seasons.

blessingx 5,377 Posted August 3, 2020 Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 The New York Times and Serial (thus This American Life) has released Nice White Parents. Seems lots of controversy already, but the TAL breakout segment was great. https://twitter.com/serial/status/1286322428109438976?s=20 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sherwood 1,346 Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 I just listened to the first episode of “Winds of Change”,@dsavitsk, and I’m hooked. His description of information security runs very close to my experience working in highly classified spaces — there is no “all access pass” to the good stuff. Lots of times the people who know the good stuff have no idea how good it is. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
