From Relay, this is Upgrade, episode 534 for October 21st, 2024.

Today's show is brought to you by Squarespace,

Fitbot and vitally, and we are facing off in a draft today. My name is Mike Hurley and I'm joined by my competitor and co-host.

Jason Snow, hi Jason.

Hi, Mike, just let's play a clean game, leave it all out on the field, good luck, gentlemen.

Yeah, this is a weird one because we're just doing a little draft later on in the episode because we'll get to it.

There's less the draft now than there was when we spoke last Monday.

Yes, there's less a draft. It's true.

Taken off the table. But we still think something is going to be announced and so we're

going to predict it.

We will start off with a snow talk question that comes from James and the

plus 4.4 who asks. I was a huge fan of

Jason's TV Talk Machine Podcast with the one and only Tim Goodman, and it helped me discover lots of great shows.

I would like to know where does Jason get TV recommendations and reviews from these days?

I still have a TV Talk machine shaped whole in my life love to your mothers.

I mean this is very nice that was a fun show Tim when Tim stopped being forcibly required by his job to review TV shows we stopped the podcast he went off and

wrote he had a development deal with have X for a little while and now he's back and he's got a

substack that you can describe to and and so I do read that I read some like Alan Stepanwall is a good source he's got a he writes at

Rolling Stone and has a sub stack of his own that's free I read you know I read

various I don't know I just like kind of look around and I hear what people are talking about and I get recommendations from friends and stuff but yes I have missed it was really nice to talk every week to somebody who was forced by their job to watch as many TV shows as possible because

Tim was really good at saying oh this was really good you should watch this or even

the don't bother with this one thing but also I have so many shows already that I don't feel the need quite so much, but it is really nice to hear from a trusted source that this this thing or this other thing is worth a shot.
