The end of the year brings with it the close of another season of Nonsense!  We are over the moon to have delivered 35 hours of the Nonsense you’ve come to enjoy across 44 episodes this season.  Because of you dear listener, our audience grew substantially, thank you for telling your friends!

For our last episode before the holiday break, and after a quick news update, we revisited some of the most popular episodes from the year to bring you current.  Where else can you tune in for ineffective drugs, robotaxi deployments, olive oil, sport tech, and artificial intelligence all in the same 45 minutes?!

That’s right, nowhere else.

Thank you for supporting our take on technology, business, and entertainment for another year.  We are looking forward to bringing you even more Nonsense in 2025 - hopefully in color!
