The Tower Record

Ep. 54 - Save Rudy

It's Sarah vs. Kevin in TTR's first debate-style episode! The format? Policy debate. The topic? "Resolved: The United States federal government should provide free medical care to Rudy Giuliani." Production note: Might be a touch of audio wonkiness on this ep, which I've worked to address, amateurishly. Still figuring out how best to do a three-person live setup when our usual recorder only seats two. Any tips that aren't just "buy a recorder with more inputs," feel free to DM. I know that's the actual answer but have you by any chance heard about the economy lately Follow The Tower Record everywhere: https://linktr.ee/thetowerrecord [https://linktr.ee/thetowerrecord] New episodes every Tuesday morning.

Ep. 51 - Did Firefighters Really Steal Jeans from the Gap on 9/11?

Well — Did they? I tried to think of so many punny wordplay titles for this, but nothing gets at the anesthetizing weirdness of this premise like just doing away with all artifice and wit and plainly posing this question to you, the audience, and us, the researchers. This story is insane btw P.S. Sincere apologies to author William Langewiesche for not even attempting to look into the correct pronunciation of your name before doing this episode. I know it's a tedious thing to have your last name egregiously misread, like, 75% of the time.
