Robb. Knight.

I recently started listening to the Hemispheric Views podcast and decided I would go back to the start and listen to the 74 previous episodes that I hadn't listened to. I wrote down all my feedback. I started this endevour on the 17th of May and finished the last episode this morning. Jason agreed to this:

We will take any feedback, 3 years old or otherwise haha

In total I listened to just over 58 hours of main show and over ten hours of the one prime plus dot com member show. About ten episodes in I started singing the theme song to Baby Knight.

• 016 I put a Raspberry Pi camera in an iSight
• 017 "Double digit coffee action" would be a good band name

• 020 Screw it, I’m making my own asset deprecation spreadsheet
• 020 Sealed triangle toastie is the best toastie type

• 022 The premise of Crackerjack sounds identical to Blackball
• 022 “Perthsuaded” I hate this
• 023 “There still isn’t a good email app on iOS” - Andrew. This is because email is bad, stop looking for your own sanity
• 023 “Everything surrounding email is wrong”
• 023 Here’s my homescreen
• 023 I wish Apple would allow apps to be anywhere on the Home Screen too. Please Tim Apple.
• 023 I have 203 apps installed

• 027 Game preservation is why I’ve tried as best I can to only buy physical games - currently I have around 300 across a bunch of consoles
• 028 A few years ago we built a Nokia 3310 simulator in the browser
• 029 I wear shoes in the house, life is too short
• 031 I wear the same black socks all year round, regardless of jeans or shorts. All my socks are identical so I don’t have to pair them up. I say no to funny socks
• 031 Perhaps there’s a market for discounted once-used socks, then Jason could have new socks every day

• 040 I am furious Andrew doesn’t use “Grand Canion” as a username everywhere because that is so fucking good
• 040 Pen licence! I never actually got mine because my writing was (and still is) terrible, I outlasted them until year 4 when everyone had to use a pen anyway
• 042 Right at the start Jason swears and isn’t bleeped and then immediately after in the same sentence he is bleeped. No notes, just amused

• 044 Never say “state daddy” again
• 044 Fruit Loops is a garbage cereal. Lucky Charms all the way

• 049 The formal intro thing is unsettling
• 050 What on earth was all this Dolly Parton talk?!
• 051 I hadn’t considered the comparison to Dharma for Severance but that is an excellent observation
• 051 🛎️ More Dolly Parton
• 051 I watched Severance in one night until 6am while sleep-deprived when Baby Knight was born. It definitely gave it a different vibe
• 052 Another recommendation for Punk Rock Factory: We Don't Talk About Bruno cover

• 070 “Be more negative” - Benji
• 072 Martin will hate this sign from a UK chain where “everyday” should be two words

• 02 The eighties were sexy
• 06 This number plate story is wonderful
• 06 In the UK we didn’t line dance at school, but we did Morris Dance
• 07 I started podcasting because I said, kind of as a joke, “Lets do a podcast?” to John Voorhees ~8 years ago
• 07 “Am I being too intense?” - Martin. No Martin, you crack on.
• 08 I guessed before I listened: I think Jason is tallest, then Andrew, then Martin.
• 08 UK folks uses imperial for height and a lot of the time weight as well. Oh and speed limits and distances are usually imperial too.
• 08 You are all very tall
• 09 The health insurance I have through work has a scheme to get a discounted Apple Watch if you do a certain amount of steps/exercise minutes every week
• 013 My mum was a social worker her entire career. I remember her saying “are you sure about these computers as a job?” when I was 16. Maybe she was right.
• 013 I have it on good authority that a lot of universities use group work so the students who are doing worse still pass because they get paired up with one or two people who will do the work
• 016 My pre-teen photo, 5 years old on my last day of a holiday in Cyprus:

• 016 wtf is ham sauce for beans
• 019 The kebab story 👏
• 020 A half onesie is mayhem
• 021 I view someone not voting essentially as a vote for the “winner”. Ultimately if you didn’t vote, you don’t have the same legitimacy to complain as someone who did.
• 023 Wogman. Just…wow. Incredible.
• 024 I will not download Day One again. I will not download Day One again.
