Hey, we're back. This is Tim Marchant. I'm here in the Deadcast with the redoubtable

David Roth. Roth, how has the last week been treating you? Terrific. I've gotten a lot of stuff done.

I've really enjoyed consuming different stories. It's been a great week.

A huge, huge week full of event. Yeah, I've been, I've been really amazed by the latest developments

in tech. I can't believe it. And the exciting athletic action, there's been a lot of good sports.

Let's not leave out the politics of the last week either, which have been remarkable. A mess,

even more than usual. Yeah, I can't believe a lot of the stuff that happened. which have been remarkable. A mess, even more than usual.

Yeah, I can't believe a lot of the stuff that happened. Like, there's half the time I was just like,

what, you know? Yeah. And, you know, as you come to the end of the year and you realize that, you know,

we're ticking down the last few things that are going to happen in 2018, and it really makes

you just think about

how much stuff has happened.

Was there anything that happened this year that you liked a lot?

You know, no, I don't think.

Maybe there was some stuff.

I mean, I had some nice times, you know, with friends and

family. I cooked some dinner. I got into, I cook monkfish better now. I think I've got a method

for that that works. I am. I have a really good spicy chickpeas stew recipe that I've made a few

times this year. It's been really good. It says something that we've

already checked down to like weeknight dinners as the best shit that happened in 2018.

I've found a new shop to buy button-down shirts in. Oh, nice. Well, now where you're speaking my

language. Yeah. I'm going to run down my Goodwill fines of the year 2018.
