Started listening to "Be Podding You'", a podcast mini-series (4 episodes) covering "The Prisoner" with coverage of the first two and the last two episodes of the series.

From an illustration project called “The Ultimate Faves Lexicon.” Mashing up 3 favorite things in a venn diagram to create an ultimate fave. This fave was an episode of the Simpsons featuring Conan O’Brien, John Stewart, John Hodgman, an electronic music robot, an anthropomorphic carrot, and a robotic carrot. Talk about niche!
