Full Episode
I have raised my hand. Good. Well done. I'm up here without having raised my hand. Is that right? According to you? Yeah.
Yeah. I've never raised my hand once in my life. Just got something to say.
I just say, in fact, it's a common comment on my report cards. Elementary school. I came up a lot in the parent teacher conference. I'm stoked for this. Me too. I've used our last episode of the year. Yeah. Have you been binging our back catalog? A little bit. I've been binging the back catalog. I've been listening. Do we want to break with tradition and give the subject right at the top?
Oh, yeah. That is one of my notes to ourselves that I've been taking while listening to the episode. So why don't we go ahead? That sounds fun. Okay.
Let's experiment with that. So this came out of our episode with Adam of Changelog fame. And Adam had pointed out that... In the changelog, they actually do a year-end wrap-up episode. So I was asking them, how do you point people to episodes? How do you find the episodes to point people? And he says, we always recommend that people go to these year-end wrap-up episodes.
And we thought, that's a very good idea. So here we are. Here we are. I would say that, that not every idea he gave was a good idea in that pod. Well, I shouldn't say that. That's too critical. He recommended the changelog dance party. Do you call this? I do remember this. Yes. And the, are you getting echo from me? No? Are you getting echo from me? Yeah, I am getting echo. Just a second.
Maybe I'm just going a little slightly insane. Is that possible?
This is a good time of year for it.
That's okay. You know what? Fine. Done. Sorry. He had recommended this changelog dance party to us. Yes. And my daughter and I were doing a menial holiday task, namely stuffing holiday cards. And I thought, this is a perfect opportunity for this changelog work music. And so I put on changelog dance party for my daughter.
