There were a fair few pops and clicks in the audio on this one, unfortunately that was the best I could do using automated tools.  I decided to leave it as is, the discussion was delightful and I was concerned that if  we re-recorded it would come out with the same flavour.  My apologies if it was too distracting, I hope you listened through until the end anyway as there was some good discussion there.  

This might be episode 42, and may as well be the answer to life the universe and everything but I still don't understand  the question and perhaps I never will.

Pfizer started importing Atarax or Hydroxine into the US in the late 50s and promoted it with these kinds of films advocating that people just relax and stop worrying about things so much.

I was very busy when I was editing this one so the sound is not quite smooth as it usually is. We used Zoom as well, and sometime it sounds like it has made an edit when it is managing bandwidth. So, Apologies for that. Also, I had allergies when doing the interviews, but it cleared up by the time I got to doing some inserts to help with the story flow, it sounds a little odd because of that. I wouldn't tell this to just anyone, but as you have been reading these show notes for so long I feel like we have gotten to be a little closer.
