And if you don't like them, throw them away. Great, no problem. But definitely, definitely try them out

first. But that's really what these companion

episodes are for, is for trying to test out some new ideas, some new techniques, and get things

to sit a little bit differently in your brain than just sitting through a lecture or just

sitting through the content. Now, I missed last week's episode. This is, we're behind a week

because I was up at base

university last week. A quick shout out to the faculty and students there. I had an amazing time

working with both the faculty and the students up there on, this is a lot of the things we talk

about in these companion episodes on studying, on test taking, on the approach to these different things,
