v25 - Ghost Engineering

Breaking Change

I left the country for a few weeks to get that taste out of my mouth but now I'm back and as salty as ever. Brace yourself.

I made a pretty strong appeal that you should e-mail the show at podcast@searls.co, so I won't repeat myself here. DO IT. DO IT NOW.

Hopefully I'll be back at least once more before we call it for 2024. Stay tuned. 📻
