Spoiler alert: The answer is yes.

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.

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.
