This was, as usual, a great collection but I have to admit I think I like the fishing flies book best because I'm always at least a little bit thinking about the British National Museum theft (which I first heard about on TAL but there are lots of sources to learn more): https://www.thisamericanlife.org/654/the-feather-heist
Oh wow, I remember reading about that, but I never heard the TAL! Thank you for the link - this is exactly what I need right now. (I think I like the book best, too.)
