Note: This episode was recorded at the end of December, hence all the chat about the new year & related resolutions. In the grand scheme of things, it still is the new year, so I don’t wanna hear it. This was also recorded before we revised our publishing schedule to make actual sense, so ignore all the confusing discussion about when the books are being read vs. discussed.
