About this listen
had been given an “Project Censored” award for his article entitled “Genetic
Bullets,” in the Washington Free Press in 2000.
While he had arguably predicted Covid 24 years before pandemic during an
interview on the Paranet Continuum, when he talked about “rumors about a
superflu coming out of China,” 9/11 had blindsided him. He felt like a fraud as an
investigative reporter and vowed to make amends by thoroughly investigating
9/11, how it happened, why it happened, the people and forces behind it and the
would-be architects of future 9/11s or worse.
He had remembered how on that dark day there was one spark of hope and
inspiration, the brave first responders in New York and Washington, D.C. and the
passengers and crew of United Flight 93, which was likely targeted for the Capitol
or the White House.
He found that the story of Flight 93 had not been widely told. Most people knew
of only one of the passenger’s names and the single stirring phrase, “Are you guys
ready? Let’s Roll.” He found this odd because there was a great deal of evidence
for the events on board Flight 93, as there were 35 Airphone and two cellphone
calls from passengers and crew of Flight 93, and due to the fact that United 93 pilot
and hero, Jason Dahl, in what was likely his dying act, turned on a switch that
caused everything heard in the cockpit to be broadcast.
In his August 1940 speech honoring the brave pilots of the RAF who saved Britain
from Nazi invasion Winston Churchill declared that “never was so much owed by
so many to so few.”
“That is,” the author contends, “until Flight 93.”

A pretty good play, but with a couple flaws
There were two things about this that bothered me. First, something seemed off with the formatting, as we got a lot of introductory information, then got it all again. I nearly gave up on this then, as the front matter wasn't that interesting the first time around. It also bothered me a little that the author seemed to fictionalized a little to tell what various people on the plane were thinking, etc, when no one can really know for sure. However, I was able to let that go. The biggest thing that bothered me was the almost complete exclusion of Todd Beamer from this story, when we all know how instrumental he was. I understand from the author's notes that he thought it unfortunate that all everyone knew of the day's heroic actions was Todd's catchphrase and so I figured he would probably try to downplay Todd's role to allow others' involvement to be highlighted. But to completely omit him from the story other than one throwaway line about him being on the phone seems dishonest and harms the historic accuracy of the piece he's trying to create. A balanced approach that shows ALL of those involved would be the most accurate and unbiased way to handle it. That said, I love what the author is trying to do here and his vision for inspiring others with the story of Flight 93, which is remarkable. Once I got past the front matter and began the actual story, it was very good and held my attention. The other thing I will note is that the virtual voice narration could've been better. There were common words and phrases (such as 9/11) that were frequently mispronounced and that detracted from my enjoyment of the play. I've heard virtual narration on other titles that didn't bother me at all, but the mispronounced of key words here was really annoying. The title is still worth a read despite all this, especially if you don't already know the story.
