Episode 137 launches MARS MESSINA PRESENTS into the New Year with our predictions for 2024 - a year that will surely be encumbered by problems and will challenge us in myriad ways. Who will win the presidential election? Will we have all-out war in the middle east? What surprises will AI unleash on us? What movie will win Best Picture? Is there any really good news on the horizon? We make those predictions in this show, and time will tell if we have been accurate in our assessments.

BEDTIME STORIES FROM THE ACOUSTIC BOOKSHELF concludes this episode with the poem, "Fallen Leaves", by Mary Cornelia Hartshorne.
