Description
Cheyne Hannegan here at Holiday Adjacent, where the meaningless (National & InternationalDays) find meaning. Like National Quitters Day. So, if you vow to quit not listening to this podcast, this National Quitters Day, I vow to never quit recording until we get some extra holidays. This is the assignment and I am doing the work. Avail your ears to a potential Holiday.
