In January, we did a show that wondered both how much the American Civil War speaks to the present American moment and how likely a new American Civil War might be. Well, movies and television have now, finally caught up with us. Civil War is the fourth film written and directed by Alex Garland. It tells the story of the end of a future second American Civil War as four journalists — played by Kirsten Dunst, Wagner Moura, Cailee Spaeny, and Stephen McKinley Henderson — move through it. Civil War is currently the No. 1 movie in the country. And: Manhunt is a seven-episode limited series on Apple TV+. It is based on the book Manhunt: The 12-Day Chase for Lincoln's Killer by James L. Swanson. It's a conspiracy thriller that focuses on War Secretary Edwin Stanton (as played by Tobias Menzies) leading the chase and on John Wilkes Booth (Anthony Boyle) as he's being chased.

Today, on The Goggler Podcast, Bahir and Uma watch and review Apple TV Plus' adaptation of James L. Swanson's Manhunt.

Nearly 160 years since the end of the Civil War and arguably the most infamous assassination in American history, Apple TV has just released the first two episodes of its series Manhunt, which is based on the 2006 bestseller "Manhunt: The 12-Day Chase for Lincoln's Killer" by James L. Swanson. Featuring Anthony Boyle, Tobias Menzies, and Hamish Linklater channeling his inner Dana Carvey-esque impersonation of Jimmy Stewart, the production behind this show is high stakes, with nearly 200 sets and Apple-quality camerawork. Tune in to hear our breakdown and comparison of the two episodes while we discuss history, acting, pros, cons, and ratings. Welcome to Today's Episode!

Actor Tobias Menzies is currently starring in two exciting projects. In the play "The Hunt," running at St. Ann's Warehouse through March 24th, he plays a teacher accused of child molestation. And in "Manhunt" on Apple TV +, he plays Edwin Stanton, the man in charge of the hunt for John Wilkes Booth in the aftermath of Lincoln's assassination. Menzies joins us to discuss these two projects, and later he will be joined by James L. Swanson, author of the book Manhunt: The 12-Day Chase for Lincoln's Killer.

After discussing the new adaptation of his book Manhunt, author and historian James L. Swanson sticks around to talk about his new book, The Deerfield Massacre: A Surprise Attack, a Forced March, and the Fight for Survival in Early America. It's an examination of a moment of violence in colonial America and what it represented for the future relations between white colonists and indigenous Americans.

BEST QUOTES "Everyone thinks it's the abundance of resources that are the answer to the golden tomorrow, and really it's more about what you stop and clarify.""I have found the Community Bible Reading Journal really helpful in terms of slowing down to think through text that normally I would have read over quickly.""One thing I've noticed after moving from LifeWay into church ministry is the way I have gravitated to learning from people who are 20 to 30 years ahead of me in ministry or in faith.""The biggest shift for me is that publishing is not a people-oriented job, it's a production-oriented job; and the church is entirely people-oriented.""I wish churches understood more the number of people at LifeWay who are really dedicated to churches.""What I am learning is that our culture is saying hustle and fill up your calendar, but they are saying it's OK to take Sabbath and rest.""Grinding doesn't always lead to greater success, but having a good work ethic and being a hard worker is always a necessity.""We really connected around intentionality and I haven't stopped thinking about it since.""I'm going to try to read less books and take notes on them to slow down and process what I'm reading."
