#287: 2025 Year in Review

About this episode

The hosts reflect on the past year, discussing show highlights, industry insights, and promoting Tim's book.

It's the most…won…derful…tiiiiime…of the year! And by that, we mean it's the time of the year when we sit back, look at each other, and ask, "Where did all the time go?!" We brought back a very special someone for this episode as we collectively reflected on the year—show highlights (and what about those shows have stuck with us), industry reflections, and a little shameless shilling for Tim's book (are you still short on a few stocking stuffers? Order now…!). This episode's Measurement Bite from show sponsor Recast is a brief explanation of Granger causality (and how it's NOT actually a causal measure!) from Michael Kaminsky !
