Happy Birthday, Thomas!!!
Congratulations! I know we’re all so glad that you’re in our lives, and hope you live another forty years with as great charity and aplomb, maintaining your eleemosynary spirit throughout every hardship, dedicating every waking hour to the development of AI tools, and raising the Patron prices because Jonathan is right and the last thing we all want is for you to go bankrupt.
My especial favorite episode from the past year is probably any of the ones expounding on how trad pub is dying due to zeitgeist disconnect. Also the one where you and Jonathan absolutely rip into recipe blogs, because that’s so true. The endings one is also fantastic.
