If you're a New York mobster from the 1950's, what does it mean for your biographer to write that you talk like a New York mobster from the 1920's? Does it just mean that the way you speak is a bit out of date?

The two circles 'boomers on Facebook' and 'extended families of gangsters' are discovered to coincide in a very attractive way.

Tristan would have become a gangster if Goodfellas ended right after the Luftansa Heist. Nathan ...

It sinks in that ~20% of Wikipedia articles are about particular species.

Once you have a substantial zoological collection going it's damn near impossible to get rid of it.

We notice a tendency to just say facts from the article to each other and say they're 'cool' or 'kinda cool'.

We manage to stay off Syd Barrett and NHR is rocked to learn that the phrase 'down pat' is not 'down packed'. 

NHR then takes us home with a lurid anec...

NHR provides a long overdue explanation of what he was thinking with the original title of the podcast. Tristan hauls him over the coals again.

As the episode draws to a close, NHR argues that Tristan is a Renaissance man and we announce NHR...

'Football has to be played.' When we were forced to research and talk about the 2018-2019 season of the Tanzanian Premier League, we did not anticipate that this League would have been so plagued with activities not going ahead.

The 2018–19 Tanzanian Premier League is the ...

Antun Vujić (born 14 July 1945).

A fruitful episode about a fruitful man. From dissident political activity to squabbling over words. Was the wolf tamed? Or his vigour sublimated?

NHR is off his chipolatas.

We really like Antun. Where are the men like this in our culture?

From heady beginnings in 1967 with an underground magazine before winding up at the Yugoslav Lexicographical Institute in the early Seventies, we are dealing with...

Fable is a literary genre defined as a succinct fictional story, in prose or verse, that features animals, legendary creatures, plants, inanimate objects, or forces of nature that are anthropomorphised, and that illustrates or leads to a particular moral lesson, which may at the end be added explicitly as a concise maxim or saying.

A fable differs from a parable in that the latter excludes animals, plants, inanimate objects, and fo...

Implicit leadership theory (ILT) is a cognitive theory of leadership developed by Robert Lord and colleagues.[1] It is based on the idea that individuals create cognitive representations of the world, and use these preconceived notions to interpret their surroundings and control their behaviors.[2]
