I just finished Dan Carlin's book "The End Is Always Near". It was a pretty light read compared to some of the other history stuff I've been reading lately, but probably my favorite book of the year so far. He talks about how crazy it would be to have a modern pandemic or nuclear war, which was a little too perfect for the moment we're in right now.

It also got me to finally start listening to his podcast, which has been a real treat.
