WEBVTT - Coming Soon: Season 4

0:00:16.115 --> 0:00:30.075
<v Speaker 1>Pushkin. Welcome to season four of The Last Archive, the

0:00:30.075 --> 0:00:32.035
<v Speaker 1>show about how we know what we know, how we

0:00:32.155 --> 0:00:34.995
<v Speaker 1>used to know things, and why it seems sometimes lately

0:00:35.395 --> 0:00:39.595
<v Speaker 1>like we don't know anything at all anymore yet. But

0:00:39.675 --> 0:00:42.955
<v Speaker 1>we're going to pick up speed. I'm Ben Matta Haffrey.

0:00:43.475 --> 0:00:46.235
<v Speaker 1>I used to produce this show, but this season Jill

0:00:46.315 --> 0:00:48.795
<v Speaker 1>Lapour has given me the keys to the archive, and

0:00:48.835 --> 0:00:52.155
<v Speaker 1>I've dug up six stories about truth, doubt and some

0:00:52.275 --> 0:00:54.715
<v Speaker 1>of the wildest creations of the twentieth century.

0:00:55.395 --> 0:00:57.915
<v Speaker 2>What the heck what that is?

0:00:57.955 --> 0:01:01.235
<v Speaker 1>Where did you find this? I went looking for stories

0:01:01.235 --> 0:01:04.395
<v Speaker 1>about the production of knowledge, moments when new ways of

0:01:04.435 --> 0:01:07.355
<v Speaker 1>knowing things were getting created, which led me to some

0:01:07.395 --> 0:01:08.595
<v Speaker 1>pretty strange places.

0:01:09.235 --> 0:01:12.875
<v Speaker 3>There was a nude couple who claimed that they were

0:01:12.915 --> 0:01:13.555
<v Speaker 3>Adam and Eve.

0:01:14.275 --> 0:01:16.755
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's doctor Frankenstein's monster, isn't it.

0:01:17.035 --> 0:01:21.195
<v Speaker 2>They were standing all together, Bring Back the Nest, Bring

0:01:21.235 --> 0:01:21.915
<v Speaker 2>Back the Nest.

0:01:23.035 --> 0:01:25.675
<v Speaker 1>This season on The Last Archive, you'll hear stories about

0:01:25.715 --> 0:01:29.075
<v Speaker 1>the dawn of social network theory. Of course, I go, oh.

0:01:28.955 --> 0:01:32.795
<v Speaker 3>My god, in terms of the history of ideas, that

0:01:32.955 --> 0:01:33.995
<v Speaker 3>was really a.

0:01:33.915 --> 0:01:39.475
<v Speaker 1>Breakthrough mid century songwriting machines. I'm not an industrial spy.

0:01:39.635 --> 0:01:43.115
<v Speaker 1>I'm a graduate student and a party for time travelers

0:01:43.115 --> 0:01:47.395
<v Speaker 1>in the nineteen eighties. I do remember thinking serving alcohol

0:01:47.475 --> 0:01:52.995
<v Speaker 1>to poets wasn't a great idea. All this and more
