    CCR at the Royal Albert Hall. The concert footage is well shot, not a ton of zooms.

    Lucy Worsley - The Black Death (on PBS)

    It halved the population of affected areas, but that lead to some increase in well-being for those who survived.

    The passing of the plague was attributed to herd immunity.

    Covid has hardly dented this century's population trends, and is not likely to improve the outlook for survivors if this year's news is anything to go by.

    Finally finished the Peter Jackson 3 part docu Get Back. Liked it so much I drug Mrs. Nasty to the media room last night and watched it again. Nice to see the COMPLETE rooftop performance and not just the snippets we usually get to see.

    What was the name of this? I saw Riki Choshu on a talk show recently talking about Andre the Giant and it was hilarious. I could go for some more!

    Broke down and cried at the Eisenhower scene at the end of third install. I've seen quite a bit of that footage back in high school history class and for some reason it didn't phase me as much until I saw it again within the context of the entire series. The tears just came out of nowhere. Hell I didn't even cry at my dad's funeral but the Ken Burns docs had me crying for humanity. Context can't be underrated. Burns should get a humanitarian award for the entire series.

    I still had more than half the 3rd part of the U.S. and the Holocaust series and finally completed it tonight. A tough watch but an obligation as I know Canada, though I don't think mentioned in the series, was certainly no better at that time, and, in my opinion... a bit worse, though I'm grateful my Grandmother and Father were able to emigrate from Holland for here after surviving occupied Arnhem and the 'hunger winter'.

    I think the Ken Burns US and the Holocaust series needs it's own thread but I'ld think that would be considered too political.

    There's so much more information from actual first hand eye witnesses and buried news articles on what was going on over in Germany in regards to the final solution.

    What was so disturbing and sobering was the fact the idea for the solution was sourced from how the US treated its unwanted people such as native Americans and other ethnic groups including the lynchings of African Americans. It's basically a documentary on the poison/disease of hating other people for being different.
