"The Mighty Atom"
21 May 2017: "And when it was over, there were 18 American Nazis on their way to the hospital and there was one Jewish-American walking home with only a black eye and holding a baseball bat, a Hank Greenberg signature model Louisville Slugger." --Nate DiMeo on the latest episode of the Memory Palace, delivering a heck of a story about "The Mighty Atom," who punched lots of Nazis (in self-defense, it must be noted). The Memory Palace is always great, but I love it when Nate is basically subtweeting on our current historical moment.
