Music La Copla from Atahualpa Yupanqui Yes, Brick by Brick and Waende by Caeys Space in Between by Federico Albanese Kieke by Shida Shihabi Notes My favorite work on Mays is James Hirsch's glorious biography, Willie Mays: The Life, the Legend. I also recommend John Klima's Willie's Boys, about the Black Baron's 1948 season. If you're looking to get more context for the city during those years, I'd recommend Diane McWhorter's history, Carry Me Home.

Particularly the audiobook. Couldn't recommend it enough.

Besides that, it is wonderfully written. Totally recommend it.

Hi, we’re Deb Perelman (Smitten Kitchen) and J. Kenji López-Alt (Serious Eats, The Food Lab, The Wok). We’re professional home cooks, which means we can - and will - make the same meal 57 times in a row on the quest for the perfect recipe. Is it crazy? For us, no, because we do this for a living. But for you? Yes, probably. Which is why you should listen to The Recipe with Kenji and Deb. You'll hear us talk about what goes into writing our recipes — the techniques we test, the ingredients we taste — so that you can be on your way to creating your own perfect recipe. Whether you're cooking meatloaf, pancakes, or chicken soup in all its forms, we got you, and you've got this. The Recipe with Kenji and Deb is a proud member of Radiotopia from PRX, a network of independent and listener-supported podcasts. Discover audio with vision at radiotopia.fm.

Edit 1-2-25: How did I not consider the Memory Palace book would have an audiobook version?! I ordered the book the first time I heard about it; going to go get the audio version right now. Nate’s podcast just fills me in a way I don’t know how to describe, but thank god for that filling❤️❤️❤️
