This week's episode begins with a look at the series of disastrous bills signed into law by Ron DeSantis that will imperil Florida's environment for decades to come, if not forever.
Our guest this week is author Michael Tougias whose book "Above & Beyond: John F. Kennedy and America's Most Dangerous Cold War Spy Mission" centers around the Cuban Missile Crisis. His most recent book, "Extreme Survival," shares lessons learned from individuals who survived the most perilous of situations.
We regularly discuss the ruinous effects of Big Sugar on Florida, if the topic interests you, an exceptional podcast series titled "Big Sugar" has been released investigating the industry from the perspective of its abused employees. You can, of course, also learn more from our "Big Sugar" episode. Lastly, Alec Wilkenson's book, "Big Sugar," is a great exploration of the industry's atrocities.
Another recommendation, "Invisible History: Middle Florida's Hidden Roots" is an eye opening look at the founding of Tallahassee and its connection to slavery. It can be seen free of charge on Amazon Prime.
