    Bob Mayer·Follow2 min read·--AdolescenceFirst, as a writer, watching an hour-long episode with zero cuts is stunning. I’ve had to watch several videos of how they achieved this, the camera always recording, always moving and following the story. I’m still wrapping my brain around what was done here. Simply outstanding. It strikes me that what makes this different from other television by doing that is the immediacy. Because there are no cuts, it feels real. There is no editing.

    Member-only storyBob Mayer·Follow3 min read·--MoneyI “what if” for a living. What makes Special Forces elite is our planning before the actual mission. Planning for all possible contingencies, on top of the actual mission. I did it as an A-Team leader, as a battalion operations officer responsible for deploying 15 A-teams around the world, and as an instructor/writer for many years at the JFK Special Warfare School, which also runs the SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape) school.

    Bob Mayer·Follow2 min read·--Life After LifeI really enjoyed the book, Like After Life, by Kate Atkinson. We didn’t know a mini-series had been made out of it but found it by randomly searching on Amazon Prime. Essentially, the story is about a woman, Ursula, who experiences, you guessed it, life after life. At first she dies in childbirth, umbilical cord wrapped around her neck. Then each life progresses, each time ending in death.
