Hello and welcome to Brokonomics the year of 2023 in review and a look ahead

at some predictions for 2024. Right so before I get into that funny story so it's it's Christmas week and I'm sat at home enjoying myself enjoying a

Flagand of whatever it is and

Meade my tip of choice so I'm is, there we go, Mead.

My tipel of choice, so I'm sat here enjoying my flagand of Mead,

playing with a puppy, pretending to be impressed with the children's artwork,

doing my customary Christmas jigsaw puzzle, happy as

Larry when my editor rings me up and says Dan, in a couple of days your boxing day episode

is due to go out where is it to which I've applied what I'm

having the week off and I was I was curtly told that no we're not going a little little

thing like the birth of Christ derail our streaming schedule

You've got an audience so jump to so fair enough here I am at home in the in the home setup so I've spent the last two hours desperately trying to get everything

working. I have figured out if for those of you I mean some of you might actually be

you chubers so you probably understand how this all worked but for those of you who aren't you might

think it's just plug in a bloody camera and you know get a mic and then off you go is the amount

buggering around you need to do with getting mic levels right and your lighting right

and all the rest of it and all the setup and the bloody recording software.

Anyway, that's the whole reason I joined load diseases in the first place rather than trying to wing it so low because I don't know how to do any of this stuff.

I have learned a couple of things over the past year with Lotus Eater's so hopefully this is not too low quality.

Bear with me is because I mean well this basically as good as you're

going to get today. So right so I've had to come up with an episode and I thought

yes let's do let's do the 2020 year in review see where we are
