Well, January was a bit of a blur. I am blaming 2021 holdover ;-). It was a rough month (rougher for others than me, but am trying to remember that that doesn't mean it wasn't rough for me). More under the cut.

The time got away from me, as you'll read about in November's update. Part if it was the last week of October was wrapped up with a work conference and my first press red carpet in over two years, so.... More under the cut.

In this recommendation, a telephone scammer makes a terrible mistake. He calls Alex Goldman.

This recommendation is actually a two-parter, two episodes from the podcast Reply All, produced by Gimlet Media. This is another recommendation from the Bello Collective e-newsletter.

Episode 102, "Long Distance", and it's 'sequel', episode 103, "Long Distance, Part II", delves into the world of tech support phone scams, and is a wild ride from beginning to end.

I found it fascinating as a journalist, and found it somewhat hilarious as someone who's done first level IT phone support. Alex Goldman has a tenacity about him that is admirable, and he is determined to get to the bottom of a scam call he gets. Where it ends up is a tale best heard.
