Oooh! Logan’s back with his awesome Music for Makers site. Such a great resource for songs for podcasts (and more). If you can afford to or make money from your creations, be sure to hit his donate button to support his efforts.

Me thinking I’ll have a nice chill Friday catching up from a couple days off.
CRA leaving a voicemail asking about my 2022 income tax return says the heck you will. 🤦♂️
