Hello everyone and welcome to Talk Nurdy. Today is, what day is it?

But before we dive into the very specific and interesting topic,

I do want to thank those of you who make TalkNurdy possible each and every week. Remember TalkNurdy is and will

always be 100% free to download and that is because I rely so heavily on the

support of listeners just like you.

There are so many great listeners who pledge their support

at each episode via Patreon.com slash slash talk nerdy.

Daniel Lang, Mary Niva, Krister Janssen,

Gabriel Felipe Herrame Gonzales, Brian Holden,

Christopher Pitts, David J. E. Smith, June Sappara, O'Rika Hagman, and Robert

Christ. You guys keep this train on the tracks. Okay, let's dive into
