T-Bone:

I've loved all of your work (esp. O Brother). What was it like working with Chris Thile and the Punch Brothers? They're personal favorites of mine and I couldn't have been happier to hear them on this soundtrack.

Edit: Oscar, same question to you. Didn't realize you recorded "The Shoals of Herring" with them.

First, fantastic article. Thank you for doing some deep research and reporting on this.

A question on the design of the online version: I really like the new format of longform articles that use the scroll to include videos and full images. I think it's a new way to experience long articles. How did the new format change your vision of presenting this story?

What was the first war, or combat zone, that you reported on? What was the most shocking difference between that experience and normal life that you didn't expect?

Hi Gene! I wasn't alive in 1986 so can't help you there. I grew up near DC but am looking for cool new places or events I haven't been to yet. What's your favorite spot in DC?
