Re: Phone photos and not being a slave to our tech bro overlords - I use Synology photos with my own NAS. A ton of the same functionalities of Google Photos or Apple Photos without the subscription upsell. Next stop... get off of Google Drive.

Brad loves his bass. Vinny's audio was very bassy and I pointed it out a short while ago, and I think he asked Brad to adjust him because it's better. But yes, I do notice a bit of bass.

For TV shows that tell a very compelling and satisfying complete story I cannot stress enough how good The Leftovers is. Easily my favorite TV show of the last 30 years.

Has anyone else noticed over the last couple months that this podcast has gotten objectively very bass-y. I think some people call it "warm" but it's like 20% too bass-y & I actively have to tune it out now or adjust my earbuds. No other podcast I listen to sounds this "warm".

My brothers in arms, appreciate you.
