Episode notes

Every once in a while, someone's like, I got a great person for you. And then I got to figure out, okay, what would the all-o-g be for this? The weirder it is, the more excited I get about it usually because I just get so excited that there's an ology for some things that you just wouldn't... Filmology is the film industry. Oh, philicology, the biology of ferns. Illicobiology is the biology of the aged. Jenna, philidaltiology is Christmas and birthday cards or postcards.

It’s a weird rambling bonus episode for the lonely week between the holidays and New Years! I thought I’d serve up a mellow hang full of secrets, a retrospective of the things that kept me relatively sane this past year, life hacks, science-backed ways to improve your mood, and a jaunty Q&A from Patrons. It’s not a normal episode, but just a little hello and check-in from your internet dad. Happy 2023, kiddos. Be good to yourself.
