Why subscribe?

Lost in Cyberspace is 7 Substacks in one! I publish several days a week on different themes, with the podcast on alternating weeks (and only available to paid subscribers):

  • View From the Ramparts: The intersections of culture and politics, with an emphasis on defending free speech

  • Tales From …: Fun vignettes from my time as a newspaper reporter interspersed with other tales from my years coaching youth sports, serving as a Boy Scout volunteer, or my days as an ROTC cadet

  • Break Out the Floor Speakers: Each week, we take another road less traveled excursion into music that is accessible, listenable and fun - but generally not widely popular

  • My Tech Life: Taking a bird’s eye view of the tech revolution, accounting for its history as well as its future

  • The Writing Life: Reviews of books I’m reading, links to articles I’ve had published elsewhere, or diving into an author or genre

  • The Flickering Screen: Film, television and video games - both current and also looking back at forgotten gems worth revisiting

  • Lost in Cyberspace Podcast: In which I explore any of the above topics in a spoken format, trying in vain to capture the sound of Tom Bodett
