In this interview I talk with science librarian and archivist Jason Harvey about his research on the strange life and tragic death of Barry Kidston. Our discussion is interspersed with archival interviews Jason Harvey conducted with Kidston's friends and family.

Thank you Hamilton and Soren for taking all the time to interview me and doing all the hard work to construct this brilliant podcast, and for sharing all the linked documentation. I am so grateful for all for the kind and constructive comments. Barry's story thus far has only been told marginally in a few places in the literature. I unfortunately hit a dead end with this project when I tried to reach out beyond Barry's initial circle of friends, relatives and doctors/researchers, and I wasn't able to connect with any of his friends that may have had more first-hand information. I am grateful to Debbie and Barry's mom Geraldine (RIP) for accommodating me so warmly and allowing me to interview them, as well as Dr. Davis and Dr. Markey. If anyone has further questions or would like more information than is already shared in the podcast, or if any of Barry's Bethesda MD friends or family happen to see this and would like to contact me, please reach out: jdh171@gmail.com.
