I'm up to the bit about Boeing and Operation Paperclip. Wonder if he mentions the research lab they had working on psychokinesis.
This is cool. Apparently Boeing had a pure research lab in the 60s due to having so much cash lying around and this bloke built a bunch of machines and experiments to test precognition and psychokinesis. The paper makes a pretty convincing argument for Pynchon having been aware of them.

In the Zeitgeist of GR, the rational, quantifiable world of physics, engineering and rocket science coexists with the mysterious, occult demimonde of "The White Visitation," a bizarre locale characterized, from Brigadier Pudding's point of view, as With its collection of eccentric Pavlovians...pynchonnotes.openlibhums.org

I don't like it when he tries to do accents. Reminds me of English football commentators trying to pronounce foreign players' names.

Nah, I'd like to though. All I've read of her's is the piece she did for Vanity Fair when she went to meet Joyce in Paris.
Djuna Barnes Talks to James Joyce In Paris
Barnes on Joyce’s character, his ability as a singer, and his then forthcoming Ulysses.

I think this podcast would be better if I didn't already know everything he's talking about. All the stuff about Boeing, Siegel, Farina, Dylan, Mimi Baez etc.

I like this guy tbh. I think he's one like Grapejuice who it's good to have out there doing conspiracy stuff without lurching to the right.

Read this comment on William T. Vollmann earlier,
"He has to be one of the least attractive people I’ve ever seen in my life. I should deservingly get downvoted for this comment, but I don’t think I can even get myself to read him I find his appearance (from his pictures) so repellant. He makes me think of some forbidden, ancient, disgusting word which is better off forgotten."
😂
