Just incredible biographer, just like one of the best and I think because of how few people have read this book, one of the most underrated biographers that I've ever read.
I cannot rave enough about Boyd and I can't rave enough about his book on Bud Day.
But in the meantime you must read Boyd, The Fighter Pilot, The Change to the Art of War which we sell at the painted porch and I will link in today's show notes
I still think about this book and what you wrote in it on an almost daily basis.

Ryan Holiday recommended this book to Brad Keselowski, highlighting the author's experience as a fighter pilot, instructor, and reformer within the military system.
I'm going to come back and watch this. I'll follow up. Yes. Glad. Well, now I have to ask you because I can't do it. Can you watch film of your own appearances? Like... Oh, all the time.
Have you read... I used it as a source in Ego as the enemy but given your interest in military jets and then also leadership, have you read Boyd, the fighter pilot who changed the art of war?
He's one of the great fighter pilots of all time. He fights in Korea. He was called 42nd Boyd because you could basically take anyone down in 40 seconds.
