Oh, hey there. It's me, Jack. You've caught me unwinding, enjoying a large goblet of delicious eggnog,

untangling my brain, gaining five to 15 pounds of eggnog. While we unwind here at Daily Zekegeist,

in addition to publishing our normal year-end episodes and

a Santa's University, et cetera. We've decided to take the opportunity to count down the top

10 episodes of the year published over the next 10 days. The 10 days that will be off Monday

through Friday, two weeks in a row. How, Jack, how did you guys determine the top

10 episodes? They were all equally incredible. Well, we used a little something called

democracy. Ever heard of it? Depending on when you listen to this episode, that might not be

such a rhetorical question. But anyways, we let you vote on the most listened to episodes of the year to see what you

liked best.

And you're about to hear your answers.

Just 10 bangers right in a row.

We've got a trending episode in the mix.

We got a lot of good ones in at number one.

Well, let's just say you'll find out,

especially if this is the number one episode. We're putting this same bumper at the start of all

10. So we hope you enjoy it. We hope you enjoyed listening to this year of TDZ as much as we

enjoyed making it. And we will see you all in 2025.

We hope you have a restful holiday.

How's my audio, by the way? Do I, let me make sure my...

You sound great to me. Yeah. Oh, good. Oh, wait.

Select America for the blue snowball, right?
