  • So much fun

    I normally don’t love long unscripted podcasts of people just talking, but I started listening to this one for the Andor discussion. I kept cracking up at the “we have appropriately nuanced views” bit. Very interesting discussion with lots of surprising funny moments. Margaret with the soundboard is also making me cry laughing…YEAHHHHH BOYYYYY.
