Curmudgeon's Corner

2022-11-05: Doing All That

Listen Later

On this week's Curmudgeon's Corner Sam and Ivan talk more about the ongoing implosion at Twitter and they take their final pre-election shot at discussing Election 2022, including getting predictions on the record, to see if Sam making predictions based on looking at poll averages ends up any better than Ivan flipping a virtual coin. And before that serious stuff, a bit on on Powerball and both Sam and Ivan dealing with various devices. Have fun, and if you are eligible to vote in the US, vote!
