041 - Alex Asks John Anything [Bonus Episode 2/2]
Wednesday Jan 15, 2025
Wednesday Jan 15, 2025
This is the second of two experimental bonus episodes I really wanted to do. Today I invited my non-technical friend, Alex, over to ask me whatever is on her mind. Most of the time it's tech related, sometimes it's about the Loch Ness monster. So today, before I go on a little vacation, I wanted to share one of those discussions with you.

This is a bonus episode for the new year at the request of a few listeners. There isn't a major hack here, this is about two things.
1. My process for making episodes
2. An experiment I did this year keeping track of all new media I consumed and ranking it.
