Hello Internet
What's More Motivating Than Knowing There Is a Deadline?
"What's more motivating than knowing there is a deadline, but not knowing what the deadline is?" "I think that's why you're hearing from them. They just give up hope and think, oh, I'll probably miss it anyway, so I won't bother," he says of those who want to send in their postcards. The Hello Internet flag referendum will be counted at some point later this year.
Brady and Grey discuss: a first cup of coffee, Rice Rats vs Swamphen, Brady Travels, AirBNB and the sharing economy, first thoughts on the Hello Internet Flag Referendum, Brady's refuses to play games, Hotstopper awareness auction results, the county flags of Liberia, things people happen to be doing while they are listening to the Hello Internet podcast corner, bi-weekly weigh in (YOU SHOULD CLICK HERE TO JOIN THE TEAM!), YouTube Red, and answers to some listener questions for the fiftieth episode.
