HOW  DOES THE FIRBOMBING OF TOKYO'S POOREST NEIGHBORSHOOD WIN A WAR?  3/8: Black Snow: Curtis LeMay, the Firebombing of Tokyo, and the Road to the Atomic Bomb by  James M. Scott  1945 TOKYO https://www.amazon.com/Black-Snow-Curtis-Firebombing-Atomic/dp/1324002999/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1X64JYW3Z1OT9&keywords=BLACK+SNOW+JAMES+SCOTT&qid=1674137497&s=books&sprefix=black+snow+james+scott%2Cstripbooks%2C61&sr=1-1 Seven minutes past midnight on March 10, 1945, nearly 300 American B-29s thundered into the skies over Tokyo. Their payloads of incendiaries ignited a firestorm that reached up to 2,800 degrees, liquefying asphalt and vaporizing thousands; sixteen square miles of the city were flattened and more than 100,000 men, women, and children were killed. Black Snow is the story of this devastating operation, orchestrated by Major General Curtis LeMay, who famously remarked: “If we lose the war, we'll be tried as war criminals.” James M. Scott reconstructs in granular detail that horrific night, and describes the development of the B-29, the capture of the Marianas for use as airfields, and the change in strategy from high-altitude daylight “precision” bombing to low-altitude nighttime incendiary bombing. Most importantly, the raid represented a significant moral shift for America, marking the first time commanders deliberately targeted civilians which helped pave the way for the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki five months later. Drawing on first-person interviews with American pilots and bombardiers and Japanese survivors, air force archives, and oral histories never before published in English, Scott delivers a harrowing and gripping account, and his most important and compelling work to date.

Love is in the air… or at least on our screens! (But really?) This week, we take a deep dive into the world of Turkish dramas, where romance meets melodrama in the most extravagant way possible. But before we get there, we're serving up our usual mix of news, recommendations, and pop culture chatter. (See not just a few of our recommendations below.) From Sundance film discoveries to Beyoncé making Grammy history, there's plenty to discuss. And, of course, we had to dissect Lovers Anonymous—and why it didn't quite steal our hearts.Plus, we close out with a recap of Severance Season 2, Episode 3, and a sneak peek at next week's episode. (Not the next episode of Severance. The next episode of Geek Girl Soup!)So grab some Turkish delight (or maybe just a strong cup of coffee) and settle in for another fun episode of Geek Girl Soup!Timestamps & Segment Breakdown[00:00:00] Intro – We kick things off with our usual silliness and joke that you won't get unless you've seen Severance s2 e3. (Actually, the only one of us who got it was the one who told the “joke”! By the way, no Severance spoilers until the very end.)[00:02:00] News & Pop Culture – Covering everything from political protests to Sundance's best documentaries, the Grammys' big wins, and upcoming releases like Beyond the Gates. (Beyoncé, Kendrick Lamar, Doechii!)[00:18:30] Recommendations – From must-watch Sundance films to Mo Season 2, Black Snow, and Paradise, we've got your watchlist covered. (Oh, the list is soooo long! Just like this episode!)[00:36:00] Turkish Film/TV Discussion – The main event! We explore the structure of Turkish dramas, their rise in global popularity, and how they differ from American soaps. (They are just a bit like telenovelas, however!)[00:52:00] Lovers Anonymous Review – Why this Netflix rom-com didn't quite hit the mark for us. (We do love Turkish film/tv in general, though!)[00:55:30] Turkish Recommendations from Cort – If Lovers Anonymous didn't do it for you, here are some better options! (Again, the list is looooong. Cort does know her Turkish tv!)[01:10:00] Next Week Preview – Next week is Rush Hour 1, 2, and 3, all on Netflix. (Apparently, this movie franchise has had massive viewership recently. So, we're jumping on the bandwagon!)[01:15:00] Severance Season 2, Episode 3 Recap – We break down the latest developments in the mind-bending Apple TV+ series. (Y'all know that we share SPOILERS!)Here are just a few of our recommendations for this week. (I wrote them down so you don't have to. You've got a cat on your lap right now, don't you?!)FROM SUNDANCE (Since these were just at Sundance, you probably won't see them for a while.

WHAT PEARL HARBOR WROUGHT 1192 DAYS LATER:   3/8: Black Snow: Curtis LeMay, the Firebombing of Tokyo, and the Road to the Atomic Bomb by  James M. Scott  https://www.amazon.com/Black-Snow-Curtis-Firebombing-Atomic/dp/1324002999/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1X64JYW3Z1OT9&keywords=BLACK+SNOW+JAMES+SCOTT&qid=1674137497&s=books&sprefix=black+snow+james+scott%2Cstripbooks%2C61&sr=1-1 Seven minutes past midnight on March 10, 1945, nearly 300 American B-29s thundered into the skies over Tokyo. Their payloads of incendiaries ignited a firestorm that reached up to 2,800 degrees, liquefying asphalt and vaporizing thousands; sixteen square miles of the city were flattened and more than 100,000 men, women, and children were killed. Black Snow is the story of this devastating operation, orchestrated by Major General Curtis LeMay, who famously remarked: “If we lose the war, we'll be tried as war criminals.” James M. Scott reconstructs in granular detail that horrific night, and describes the development of the B-29, the capture of the Marianas for use as airfields, and the change in strategy from high-altitude daylight “precision” bombing to low-altitude nighttime incendiary bombing. Most importantly, the raid represented a significant moral shift for America, marking the first time commanders deliberately targeted civilians which helped pave the way for the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki five months later. Drawing on first-person interviews with American pilots and bombardiers and Japanese survivors, air force archives, and oral histories never before published in English, Scott delivers a harrowing and gripping account, and his most important and compelling work to date. 1941 ARIZONA AFTER ATTACK

In our interview about Black Snow: Curtis LeMay, the Firebombing of Tokyo, and the Road to the Atomic Bomb (W. W. Norton & Company, 2022), James M. Scott discusses the principles and personalities involved in the most destructive air attack in history. Seven minutes past midnight on March 10, 1945, nearly 300 American B-29s thundered into the skies over Tokyo. Their payloads of incendiaries ignited a firestorm that reached up to 2,800 degrees, liquefying asphalt and vaporizing thousands; sixteen square miles of the city were flattened and more than 100,000 men, women, and children were killed. Black Snow is the story of this devastating operation, orchestrated by Major General Curtis LeMay, who famously remarked: “If we lose the war, we'll be tried as war criminals.” Scott reconstructs in granular detail that horrific night, and describes the development of the B-29, the capture of the Marianas for use as airfields, and the change in strategy from high-altitude daylight “precision” bombing to low-altitude nighttime incendiary bombing. Most importantly, the raid represented a significant moral shift for America, marking the first time commanders deliberately targeted civilians which helped pave the way for the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki five months later. Drawing on first-person interviews with American pilots and bombardiers and Japanese survivors, air force archives, and oral histories never before published in English, Scott delivers a harrowing and gripping account, and his most important and compelling work to date. Andrew O. Pace is a historian of the US in the world who specializes in the moral fog of war. He is currently a DPAA Research Partner Fellow at the University of Southern Mississippi and a co-host of the Diplomatic History Channel on the New Books Network. He is also working on a book about the reversal in US grand strategy from victory at all costs in World War II to peace at any price in the Vietnam War.
