At Least You're Trying

This one almost didn't happen. There were technical failure-tunities, but we struggled through. Jody has impending twins, Matt has questions.

In a super-quick follow up to episode 42, the boys sit in a 95 degree room and try to talk about focus. Also: rental cars, iPad games, career decisions, and rubber bands.

So... yes, it's been a while, but the procrastination death spiral (Copyright ALYT 2014) is finally over. It's a retrospective this week, wherein we catch up with the conferences, projects, and car crashes of the previous month.

It's a short show due to an impending Bonnaroo music festival, but Matt manages to maximize the time by making a big decision.

After discussing the listeners' responses to the Inertia topic from e39, Matt tries to recruit for a scientific study of belly-button lint (BBL). Then it's on to the topic lightning round, which Jody wins.

Tough topic this week: Inertia. Why do we get stuck doing the the things we don't want to do, and not doing the things we want to do? Also: Jody has plumbing. Matt has a boat.

It's all follow-up, both real and fake, but they boys are glad to be recording again after an eventful hiatus.

This week it's part 2 of the food show, with a few functional components, as promised! The boys try to figure out why cooking seems so hard.

After a frankly conservative amount of follow-up, the boys get right to the topic: FOOD. Matt has a philosophy. Jody has a burrito.

We had a topic, but we knew we'd never get to it. This week it's all feedback (thanks listeners!), follow-up, and FFU, wherein Matt reveals his new 10 year plan for Adventure, and Jody gets hit on the head.
