I'd like to bring back the QUIT! podcast (about helping people start something new). The timing feels right and there is new ground to be covered in 2023. I'll use Discord for the livestream and call-ins. Did you listen before? Would you listen live? Would you call in?

Do I know anyone who can help me find a (seemingly) rare children's book from the late 1960s/early 1970s?

Unpopular opinion:I don’t care about my phone camera and would prefer a flat phone without a camera bump. I am moving away from devices. Little social media. No “working on my phone.” Instead I use a computer to do focused work.

Now that my kids are older, I mostly take photos of things I want to remind myself about, nutrition labels, parking spot at the airport, stupid things I want to share with a friend. I have a pocket camera that I prefer to use if I am serious about taking pictures.

I'm about to list my Fujifilm X100V with a bunch of customizations on eBay unless someone here is interested.

Starting my yearly Christmas Day to New Years re-listen to @danbenjamin’s #PodcastMethod It’s become part of my holiday ritual, and it’s not about the information, as much as it’s about the companionship - which IMO is the most underrated aspect of audio podcasting.

Also investing in the WRONG shows. Paying famous folks with nothing to say like the Obamas and Harry/meghan was a poor gamble. Great example of big names thinking Podcasting would be an easy climb to success.

Can we please have checks that look like this again? uncrate.com/steve-jobs-signe…

Steve Jobs Signed Apple Computer Check

It's strange to think about now, but the origins of many of tech's biggest companies can be traced back to simple roots... at RadioShack. Evidence of this can be found in interviews and seen in this...

Can I just say these are some of the coolest, funniest, and most endearing human characters not only within the Godzilla series, but the Kaiju genre as a whole. Cap, Doc, and Kid are so cool and gives #GodzillaMinusOne    so much heart and soul!

It's so good to see Godzilla Minus One praised for it's human characters, at least proving the point I was trying to make when I reviewed King of Monsters, that had one-dimensional characters who made no sense, and got yelled at because "no one watches Godzilla for humans."
