This episode contains: We talk about President Biden's inauguration, and what we did to celebrate (like buy a bone folder or a hot tub).

Debunking Pseudoscience: Ineffective 'learning styles' theory persists in education. Were told you were a 'visual learner' or an 'auditory learner' or something similar? Turns out that 89% of teachers also believe this pseudoscience. We also talk about the merits of having physical books.
