This week was supposed to be a guest episode but life happens and we had to pivot! Not only did this lead to some schedule shuffling, but it also got me thinking about the structure of the podcast and how it was feeling.

Join me for a mini lil update episode where I get into how I've been feeling about recording and what the future looks like for Facts With Dak, as well as some fun tid bits on service providers charging for cancellations and my fool proof strategy for living in a world that's obsessed with AI.
