Show Notes
Didi and Littal discuss their recent experience with a new pedalboard and the challenges of accessing the Charles River from their backyard. They delve into the broader topic of regulations and their often unintended consequences, using examples from local policies in Massachusetts, such as the controversial one-car garage policy and new gas heating regulations. The duo also criticizes well-intentioned but poorly executed green initiatives, advocating instead for thoughtful, impactful sustainability practices. They conclude by drawing a parallel to the world of sports, particularly the NHL's rule on goaltender interference, arguing for simplified, effective regulations.
