Episode 80 - Seduced by the Light - is live with author Alexander Rimer!
On this episode, Kops and Lee are excited to be joined by the author of Seduced by the Light: The Mina Miller Edison Story, Alexandra Rimer! But before they get to the intelligent and impressive Allie, your Idiots have the least intellectual conversation possible.
Alexandra Rimer, the esteemed professor and newly published author, tells Kops and Lee (09:45) how she got involved with the Edison Papers and gives the boys some background on Thomas Edison. Then she explains her journey to publish her book and why she decided to write about Edison's 2nd wife Mina Miller Edison.
Wrapping up (47:43)... Kops and Lee enjoyed speaking with Allie, publishing her book is a huge accomplishment. Lee then asks for Kops' thoughts on some current events: the attempted Wagner Group coup in Russia, Pat Sajack retiring from Wheel of Fortune, the Supreme Court and the OceanGate submarine.
