AI is incredible. They can teach you how to fry an egg and even write a poem, pirate style.

But it knows nothing about your work. Slackbot is different. It doesn't just know the facts.

It knows your schedule. It can turn a brainstorm into a brief and it doesn't need to be taught.

Because Slackbot isn't just another AI.

It's AI that knows your work as well as you do.

Hello. Hello, get booked listeners, and welcome to The Handsell, a special weekly installment that's all about books we just can't resist shouting about.

This is Jen Northington, and today's hand cell is The Grace of Kings by Ken Liu,

which is the first book in the Dandelion Dynasty series. The third book has just recently come out,

and the fourth one is announced, and it occurred to me that now would be a great time for me to go back, read the first one over again, and then catch up with the series.

So before we get into the details of that, let's hear from our sponsor.

This episode is sponsored by Cozy Earth.

This year, I'm getting really intentional about resetting my home, especially my evening routine, because that five to nine window is the part of the day that really matters to me.

I've been building this little nightly ritual with Cozy Earth, and honestly, it's becoming

my favorite part of the day. I start with a bubble bath. Obviously, I'm reading a great book,

and then I wrap up in one of their lux bath towels,

which are so unbelievably soft, but they also dry you off really quickly. After that, I slip into

cozy earth's bamboo stretch-knit pajamas, which are the kind of comfort that feels effortless

and still looks put together. And then there's the bedding. Climbing into fresh, luxurious sheets at the end of the

night makes my entire space feel calmer. It's the easiest way to signal to my body that it's time to

slow down, to rest deeply, and to reset for the next day. Cozy Earth also makes it easy to try.

There's a 100-night sleep trial and a 10-year warranty, which says a lot about their quality.
