[…] the memory palace (hosted by Nate DiMeo): This one makes me cry on a regular basis. We’re talking real tears, here. It’s about history and America and what it means to be alive.

I noticed a few other people wrote that this is their favourite episode – but I thought I’d chime in because it’s my favourite episode too 🙂 I’ve listened to it again and again, a dozen times by now at least. And every time I tell someone about your podcast (which is often), I always link to this episode first. Please never stop telling these stories!

Just discovered your podcasts and have, too quickly, listened to them all.. Rising and Falling left me smiling, Box made me cry (Damn You!), but Dreamland was my favorite. So beautifully told. I could hear the wonder in your own voice.. Thank you for these..

Jim, he says a scale model of san francisco. When does he mention the golden gate bridge?

Amazing podcast, as always.

So many of your stories do, it mad me long to visit a place that isn’t there anymore. The aquarium that replaced it just isn’t the same.

It’s easy for those of us out here in Radioland to snipe away at small mistakes. But that’s hardly fair, after I’ve enjoyed your podcasts as much as I have. The vignettes are intriguing, you write with some care and flare (rare among historians, both academic and general), you have an engaging radio voice, and you recognize the value of remaining succinct. So, many thanks from one of many (until now) silent listeners.

In reply to Jim. Ack. Thanks for the catch.

Dreamland burned down in 1911. A scale model of the Golden Gate Bridge would have been prescient: the actual bridge was not built until 1933-37.
