Scrambling for time this week and didn't get to record a Media Pit ep as planned. Not to leave you without anything to put in your ears, I had some thoughts that have been rattling around in my head and what better place to get those out into the universe than in another Cat 5 episode. Why Cat 5? Because the goal is to keep it around 35 minutes. As a bit of disclaimer, this episode is me talking off the top of my head. No notes or script. My thoughts are fluid. They may change down the road. Or tomorrow. But here's where I'm at today. Thanks for listening.
