Hey everyone!
So, I am quite late with this newsletter and podcast as I was travelling blah blah. But also Twitter owns the service I was using for newsletters (Revue), which meant I needed to look for a replacement. I looked at a few but settled on where all the cool kids were… Substack.

Hey Gregarious Mammals 👋
Back after holidays, work travel, sickness, and general "bleh". Life is getting back to pre-2020 normality and it's taking a little getting used to! 😅
