Hi, I'm Frances Fry. And I'm Anne Morris. And we are the hosts of a new TED podcast called Fixable.

We've helped leaders at some of the world's most competitive companies solve all kinds of problems.

On our show, we'll pull back the curtain and give you the type of honest, unfiltered advice we usually reserve for top executives.

Maybe you have a coworker with boundary issues, or you want to

know how to inspire and motivate your team. No problem is too big or too small. Give us a call,

and we'll help you solve the problems you're stuck on. Find fixable wherever you listen to podcasts.

Hey everyone. This is Alex Goldman, a host of Hyperfixed.

If you know my previous show, Reply All, welcome back. I am very excited to be making stuff again.

And if you don't, I'm happy to have you. So these two episodes that are coming out right now, they are pilots.

After these come out, we're going to spend a couple months with our heads down,

and then the show is going to go into full production in November,

with a new episode every other week, and bonus stuff on the off weeks.

All right, I think that's it.

I just wanted to say thanks again for listening.

All right, hope you enjoy.

Oh, also, if you have any problems that you want us to try and again for listening. All right, hope you enjoy. Oh, also, if you have any problems

that you want us to try and solve for you, please submit them at our website, hyperfixedpod.com.

There's a little button right on the front page. Okay, enjoy the show.

Hi, I'm Alex Goldman. This is hyperfixed. On this show, listeners write in with their problems

big and small, and I solve them. Or at least I try. And if I don't, I at least give a good reason

why I can't. Today's episode, Gwen can't drive. So I'm originally from the Midwest, but at this point I've spent over half my life in the New York area.

And during that period of time, I've come across this thing that back home felt utterly foreign to me.
