This week, Howard Blum, who has been doing terrific reporting on the murder of the four college students in Idaho, discusses what role social media may have played in the manhunt for the killer, and tells Ashley and Mike the questions he would love to know the answers to. In addition, Air Mail Associate Editor Jensen Davis looks at the strange new trend among the elite: hiring a chief of staff. Finally, one of our favorite writers, Mark Bowden, author of the best-seller Black Hawk Down, is here to talk about why he can never get enough books about Abraham Lincoln.
