The wrong flight. Im brian balogh and ive been a cohost for backstory for over ten years now. Im going to introduce the panel and then we are each going to say a few words about our quite different roles. Nathan and i have the same role, he is trying to steal the 20th century from me, doing a pretty good job of it, but we all have relatively different roles in backstory. I wanted to talk about that a little bit and then we are going to open it up to your questions. Just for starters, this is not what it looks like behind the scenes at backstory. In fact, were rarely in the same place at the same time. I had to Google Nathan to see what he looked like, for instance, even though i talk to him every week. So introducing myself, im a professor at the university of virginia, i cohost backstory and i direct the National Fellowship program at the jefferson scholars foundation. My cohost, nathan connelly, of course, is known to most of you as an outstanding scholar. He is the Herbert Herbert b

The year where were overloaded with earnings information, most companies in the s p report this week. Remember that the professionals listen to every Conference Call check every model and do deep dives in each quarter which means that unless they get up at 4 00 a. M. And work until 11 00 p. M. They simply dont know about what should be bought and what shouldnt be, and i have to tell you, thats why a lot of mistakes are made. Thats why i tell you at home to stop, look and listen during these periods. As we try to run the gauntlet created by the cacophony of earnings season. Whats exactly in store for us for the rest of this week. Tomorrows all about apple and ten days ago the company made a major push into china and the worry is the sizeable chunk of buyers may have been margined out of this stock positions in the great crash of china and they migrate to the expense of iphone 6. Not this quarter, since it didnt include the chinese debacle and thats why it is so important not to trade of
That big. Im going to negotiate a very dangerous set of rapids this morning. The professor at Georgia Southwestern State University who is married u in fact torks one of my employees, dr. Glen robins, he says and i agree completely, generally, you can either talk about andersonville or the other military prisons of war. It becomes emotionally difficult to try to do both. I hesitate to use the acronym p. O. W. In a civil war context. Its a 20th century term. And i wliek to talk about. So it tends to slow me down a lot. Fall outside of the traditional heroic narrative of the war. And, again, you lose objectivity very quickly the longer you stay down in the wreckage of the war. Andersonville is the most famous of the military prisons. Its a long way from the rest of the civil war world, both literally and figuratively, the prison site was chosen on purpose 150 years ago to be as remote and as insulated a place in the confederacy far from perceived locations battle. And 50 years later, thi
, who is married, in fact, to one of my employees, dr. Glen robins, he says and i agree completely, generally, you can either talk about andersonville or the other military prisons of war. It becomes emotionally difficult to try to do both. And i will explore that. And i am going to weave in between the two a little bit. A note on semantics before i start any further. I hesitate to use the acronym p. O. W. In a civil war context. Because its a 20th century term. Like to talk a lot. Prisoner of war slows me down a little bit. Civil war prisons and prisoners of war fall outside of the traditional heroic narrative of the war. And looking into this story, in a sense, that requires one to dive deeply into the wreckage of the war, the consequences of the war. And, again, you lose objectivity very quickly the longer you stay down in the wreckage of the war. Andersonville is the most famous of the military prisons. Its a long way from the rest of the civil war world, both literally and figurat
