Show Notes
Finally back out in the park again and we covered a whooollllle lot of topics.
In Episode #392 of 'Meanderings' Juan and I discuss: how Juan got reverse charged for a free trial, more ads than content in some podcasts, how you can get a cockpunch NFT from Juan, why I want to be like the villain in Jackie Chan's 'Legend of The Drunken Master', Massimo Kokhno & Mihaela Karkia, an obsession with water and the crappy science we are trying to avoid.
As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
