You mentioned that you have a YouTube channel now — can you please provide a link? Putting it in the Show Notes might be a good idea.

I think the Katie Steckles link is broken.

I will say that my family is American and we own an electric kettle. Also, I am not going to update my iPhone after hearing about the calculator update!

Just found this podcast, so trying to catch up from the start. Just listened to the 11th episode, brilliant that it is still going ❤️

My Samsung/Android has a scientific calculator by rotation or button, BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE A RANdom FUNCTION!! 😱

Ripper episode to bring up the ton. I didn't know about landscape calculator magic (I've installed Google's calculators app to get amongst the fun.); I didn't realise what a splendid subversive Bec was; I doubt a double blind will reveal a strong relationship between water degassing and tea beverage quality (but I believe tea bags in mugs aren't as good as loose leaf tea in tea pots). Finally, I got my name mispronounced - yay!
