I finally had the idea that no one else has ever had: Put the podcast playlists on the website.

​Let me know where to pick up my Brain Award.

​You can always listen to the podcast here and here. And from now on, I'll be listing the playlists here.

My goal in 2019 is to spend more time creating shows for you. Sometimes I need to do my Job That Pays and also Family Things. But now, with a few episodes under my belt, I feel like I have a good handle on how to provide you with quality entertainment more often.

One way to be entertained immediately, is to follow The Vertical FIles on Instagram. You won't be able to contain your excitement.

Thanks again for your support. I appreciate you being here.
