Should just anyone be allowed to choose the top 10 of anything? Or should it be left to experts who are knowledgeable about the things they're ranking? Well, just like top 10 lists themselves, that's endlessly debatable. And yet! Crowd sourcing is a huge thing now. Big Data uses your info to sell you useless crap. Astronomers use volunteer computing power to search for exoplanets. And now randos use the internet to argue about the best bourbons. So, listen in as we debate the merits of these lists and then injure our shoulders by patting ourselves on the back for getting it all so f**king right. After all, we're part of the great unwashed, too. (But not really, we totally shower. Sometimes every week!)
