This was a fun one to report. These unedited tapes (available online!) capture glimpses of our superstars as, well, just people
Pull any tape from the Larry Katz Collection at Northeastern University in Boston, and you'll find any number of surprising gems from the rock stars Katz interviewed in a three-decade career. atlasobscura.com/articles/katz-…
Look what just arrived! Happy pub day, @brooklynzydeco. I can't wait to meet Glory Broussard in these pages
Find out why Lincoln's bowtie was always crooked, where pink diamonds come from, and how a tank museum became a social media sensation in my regular Atlas Obscura column "Wonder is Everywhere" atlasobscura.com/articles/wonde…
Your biweekly dose of the weird and wonderful: @mlevenson on an odd "bee emergency," @SteelandBallast on the "curious case of the clown wedgefish," and @johngmarks on renegade historical markers. Plus: the gnome burglars of North Wales. Wonder is Everywhere on Atlas Obscura-->
This week in wonder: @judeisabella on Alaska’s “republic of cows,” Abdelhakim Abu Riash on the women saving Gaza’s history and @Alexandra_Eaton on finding Bélizaire, an enslaved boy whose portrait is now on display in New York More on Atlas Obscura: atlasobscura.com/articles/wonde…

Looking forward to reading this article by @AprWhite in @SmithsonianMag. After I read it, I’ll track down THE DIVORCE COLONY. (Side note: The first 29 of my 44 trips around the star were in Sioux Falls, SD.) #midwesthistory
What you should be reading right now (according to me): @JennieGritz on never-seen-before images of Oppenheimer’s Los Alamos, @adamakary on cultural devastation in Sudan, @ksteenbeeke on the sinister history of the cliff chirping frog and more atlasobscura.com/articles/wonde…
Wonder is everywhere: carrier pigeons in the air over eastern India (by @SunilKataria), art on the road from Ukraine to France (by @bendodman) and alien meteor fragments deep underwater near Papua New Guinea (by @ZariaGorvett) atlasobscura.com/articles/wonde…
What I'm reading this week: @lizlandau on the world's coolest library, @BoothWilliam on a reconstructing a medieval ship, @ZariaGorvett on the new Tornado Alley and @daily_cowboy on, yes, "Pedro, the Wyoming Pygmy Mummy" atlasobscura.com/articles/wonde…
Check out my new column for Atlas Obscura: WONDER IS EVERYWHERE, a round up of the most surprising and awe-inspiring stories Atlas *hasn’t* covered. Up now: Must-read tales from @Kath_La, @NoreenMalone and @gardenandgun plus the saga of the “Richmond Rat Boy.”
Curious about our current obsessions? Check out these incredible stories from some of our favorite publications! atlasobscura.com/articles/wonde…
