Episode notes

Survival bias is the logical o of concentrating on people or things that made it past some selection process and overlooking those that did not. Survivorship bias can lead to overly optimistic beliefs because failures are ignored, such as when companies that no longer exist are excluded from analysis of financial performance. For example, if three of the five students with the best college grades went to the same high school, then that would lead one to believe that the high school must offer an excellent education.

I gotta be honest, I was messing with some audio settings on the mixer this week and the levels were a bit hot. I did my best to lower it in post-production. But, I'm shit. I think I finally got it dialed in and next week should be tip top. My bad.

Enjoy!
