August Reads at 8:00, Paul ends at 32.33, and Jakob ends at 49:25

Skip ahead to 49.25 to move to the discussion and right to the talking.

Thanks for everyone for listening. This is a pod I wish existed when I was back working on a night crew for like six years. Where I could turn my brain off, listen in and out of without checking my damn iphone every few minutes - back when I had one while working the frozen section. While my hands were freezing and I was like wet. I really loved conducting this podcast. I wish every podcast were like this episode. But I realize no one would probably listen, This is a great episode. I mean all of them are.
