By Xavier Romero-Frias – Own work, CC BY-SA 3.0The Twelve Days of Christmas song will come on pretty frequently, and one day, we start discussing what day before Christmas you would have to start sending presents based on the song and if the last day of presents is Christmas or Christmas Eve.
A quick Gemini query (aka ask AI) taught us something we didn't know about the song:
We were also recently exposed to this funny chain of letters from someone (aka Emily) who got the Twelve Days of Christmas.

Here are some post-election podcasts that I've listened to recently. They offer intellectually stimulating perspectives on the 2024 Election.
I still need to re-listen to them and make some notes.
Podcast #1 —
Fareed Zakaria on What Just Happened, and What Comes Next: After a dramatic election, Donald Trump has returned from exile. We hear what to expect at home and abroad — and what to do if you didn’t vote for Trump.
Podcast #2 —
Election Analysis From Down Under: Looking for a fresh point of view on the recent U.S. presidential election, Cal Fussman reaches out to his Australian friend, Holly Ransom, who gives leadership conferences around the world as the CEO of Emergent Global. Richard Branson nominated Holly for Wired Magazine’s Smart List of Future Game Changers to Watch in 2017. And you’ll hear why when you listen to this podcast. Bonus: A lot of leadership takeaways!
Podcast #3 —
Tania Israel: The Science of Political Unity on Guy Kawasaki's Remarkable People Podcast
