We're wrangling multiple frontends all at once, trying to onboard Nova users, and Aaron did some fun MySQL stuff.

It's starting to work, but Sean always knew it was going to.

The team is back from Christmas break, with a lot to talk about.

Matt Wensing (https://twitter.com/mattwensing) joins Aaron to talk about sacrificing time early on in hopes of having more freedom later.

Talking through a few Vue changes, making a call on a Livewire frontend.

Aaron and Colleen talk about the trough of despair and also numeric range optimizations, of course.

Back from Thanksgiving, we talk about finding an amazing React contractor, integrating the Vue and Laravel libraries, and more. 

It's finally here.

We talk about our coffee habits, new computers, renderless components, databases, and confidence.
