| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone, this is the Earful Tower. My name's Oliver G. You're listening to a podcast all about |
| 0:05.3 | figuring out Paris, figuring out France. And the Yearful Tower, if you didn't figure it out, |
| 0:10.9 | is a play on words of the Eiffel Tower, but it's for your ears. So what we're about to do today is |
| 0:17.2 | New Year's Eve as I'm sitting here recording this and we're going to do a flashback |
| 0:21.4 | throwback episode. New Year's Eve is a bit of a time of reflection. So I looked through all the |
| 0:27.0 | statistics and found which episode of the Earful Tower 2018 was the most downloaded and well, |
| 0:34.9 | you'll find out what it is in a second. first a few words about this year it's been a |
| 0:39.9 | wonderful year a lot of new listeners i think 300,000 downloads which blew my |

| 1:30.4 | down the left and the right sides of it were what I guess you could call ears, kind of like human |
| 1:36.3 | ears. And James said he'd had his morning coffee at this point on Christmas Day and realized that |
| 1:41.4 | it was indeed a crude representation of the Earful Tower. |
| 1:46.1 | And his wife had bought him a year's Patreon support or subscription, where you can watch all the |
| 1:53.4 | bonus videos and the live stuff. |
| 1:55.3 | So there's a nice Christmas idea. |
