Weekly Roundup: “Baby Loves Electrical Engineering on Christmas,” Farbsy on Instagram, and Feeling Needed

About this episode

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.

Catherine's library find is a board book that's ostensibly for babies... about electrical engineering. Better yet, it has a Christmas theme! (And it's part of a whole series of science-themed board books). We'll stick with colors, shapes, and ABCs, thanks.

Terri's random recommendation this week is a lighter topic than electrical engineering: Funny videos on Instagram. Check out Farbsy for goofy takes on workplace emailscustomer support for pets, and more.
​​
In the archives, we checked out an episode from 2019 on the good news/bad news of being needed as a parent. Mentioned: Googling Is for Old People. That's a Problem for Google, at the Wall Street Journal; the penny problem on The West Wing and at the New York Times

Next week's lineup: 
  • Lost S2 E1, "Man of Science, Man of Faith," on Tuesday, December 24
  • Shrinking S2 E8, "Last Drink," on Wednesday, December 25
  • Weekly roundup on Thursday, December 26

Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.
