Thanks for that recommendation! I'll look them up. An Austin City Limits taping would be fun. I bet that's booked out a ways in advance. There's a few taco trucks in Austin that have gotten a lot of praise, I'd like to find at least one of those. It's insane how loud some restaurants are—we learned from our travels overseas that this is a uniquely American thing. We'd been to a lot of crowded restaurants in Europe and people tend to keep their conversations to the table. We also didn't see as many loud FaceTime/video calls taking place in public spaces like you see here. That's a pet peeve of mine. Podcasts can be interesting, in good ways and bad. Like any media I'm careful of what I consume.

No problem. I have never been to Austin, but I have some family that lives down there on my wife's side. It seems like a pretty progressive place for being down in Texas. It's also the new silicon valley from what I have heard. I started taking a look at some podcasts on Spotify the other day. I am not sure when I will listen to them, but I added a few to the list. Yes, loud calls are annoying, and tacos are always a good choice!
Oh cool that you have relatives down there! Yes, I've heard Austin is a kind of oasis in a lot of ways. It'll be interesting to explore the city and talk to people. There are so many good podcasts. I tend to listen to them when I'm doing my cardio or solo walks.
I found a Jazz one that looks kind of promising that I am kind of eager to dig into.
That should be a fun one.
