019: It's a Veblen Good!

Listen Later

This time, it's all about music! Jason reports the results of an advanced headphone audit, Andrew shares yet more economic wisdom and Martin prompts a chat about guilty song pleasures.

An update! Thank you to everyone who participated in our Twitter polls about macOS Finder usage after episode 018.

We're excited to share the results: when launching a new Finder window, the majority of voters (83.3%) click on the icon; and when it comes to the window view, it was a tie between icons and columns (38.9%).
