Happy New Year Pixels! Well it's nice to see 2023 in the past with all the lay offs, but 2024 seems to be starting off with a bit of a kicker. In fact since this episode was recorded Riot laid off 530 employees. It's hard to keep track.

In this episode we chat about what we plan on covering with the Podcast in the year to come. How to package yourself up as someone employable in this turbulent time, the value of personal projects and wrapping up the elephant in the room.
