“Trying to talk somebody out of the stuff that they enjoy in life is like trying to talk them out of their faith or their sexuality. It’s a pointless exercise that can never be anything but acrimonious and will only highlight unnecessary amounts of difference about things that ultimately don’t really matter. Buy the steak you like, worship the god you love, neck with the people that you treasure and don’t worry about the numbers.”

Merlin Mann // Taken from Episode #91 of Back To Work (1:07:00-1:07:24)

You Look Nice Today, one of my favorite podcasts, had the same thought a few years ago. The show is a free-form conversation with one consistent theme: At some point, one of the three hosts will pitch the others a business proposal for an imaginary product. In the 2009 episode, “The Good Part,” that product was a song made entirely out of the best moments from other songs —- beginning with “In the Air Tonight” and cycling through two dozen more.
Thanks a million, Daoud. You’re a gentleman, and we’re very proud to count you as a fan. High Five.

Because, sometimes, a You Look Nice Today eppo benefits from the occasional footnote.
