Two years ago, in podcast 151, we interviewed Ashley Rindsberg on “The Gray Lady Winked”, his book critiquing the New York Times.
At the time he was domiciled in Israel. The interview was peppered with the occasional sound of rockets.
With the recent outbreak of conflict, talking with Rindsberg again was an obvious decision.
We visit a very good Mailroom this week with Mrs Producer. Thanks, as always, to all of you who contribute.
