I've listened to an old episode or two with the "life updates" at the front and I've thought to myself, "self, just get to the point!" so I'll keep things short to explain how I don't even think I'm on a "quarterly" schedule anymore.

 

Does the listener feedback line work still work? How do you say "root" and "bag"...?  Do I have Windows 11?  What great questions!
