The Grey NATO – 363 – A Navel-Gazing Oral History Of TGN

For this rather indulgent episode, Jason and James are looking back at the untold elements of the TGN story from the past decade. From the earliest discussions to the moment they almost quit making the show, to when it was nearly sold to a larger outlet, and a whole bunch in between. From SoundCloud to Substack and Slack, if you’ve been with the boys from the start, we hope it's entertaining. If not, don’t worry, we won’t do it again for another 10 years.

Stay in the mix for a Final Notes that will have you digging a great new book out of a great new bag. Thanks so much for listening.
