The Robert Hoquim Extra Episode: A Small Homework Assignment, A Fascinating Story, The Man in the FBI Hat, What Stories Change in Us, The Story I Won't Tell, A Book Yet Unwritten I Want to Read. This episode is a little different in that it has a homework assignment: I ask folks to go listen to Episode 30 of Reply All, which I appear in and which is based on a story I brought to them. A link to the episode is here: https://www.gimletmedia.com/reply-all/30-the-man-in-the-fbi-hat Here is a link to the archive of information I built up over years about John Aleshe: http://www.bbsdocumentary.com/library/CONTROVERSY/PERSONALITIES/ALESHE/ And here's the illustrated speech on Hoquim/Aleshe (and charlatans in general): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTzQmhmgLC0
This week we go way back to the early days of the internet, to 1989, where fugitive John Aleshe built Indianapolis's first ISP and then sold it for $23m. Then we go even further back and Shawn tells us about the making of the 1981 classic The Evil Dead. Who says we aren't current and relevant?
