The Charles C. W. Cooke Podcast

Episode 9: Really Cool Stuff on the Internet

Episode Summary

On this Thanksgiving episode, Charles stops complaining for a moment and explains what he's grateful for; interviews Ricky Cobb about his smash-hit Twitter account, @Super70sSports; and answers questions about his dual citizenship.

Episode Notes

It's Thanksgiving, so Charles takes a break from complaining about this politician or that policy or the thing he just read in the newspaper and reflects upon the miracle that is the modern world. He could have been born in Sparta in 400BC, but he wasn't; he was born in England the 1980s, and got to live in America in the 21st century. How lucky is that? 

Charles's guest this week is Ricky Cobb, the "mad scientist" behind the iconic @Super70sSports Twitter account, who, in his own words, has "the most disturbing non-pornographic browser history" in the United States.

Finally, in the third Q&A, Charles answers more listener-supplied questions. This week: "are you a dual citizen?" and "which books on the Beatles should I read?"
