No Market Radio – 0033 Efficient-A-Sizing

Summary: We are back, and recording on a Saturday night (the best time for "making pods"). Neither one of us had a whole lot of energy for this show, but we managed to find some interesting stuff to talk about anyway. * I actually went outside (and had sushi) (and saw a palm tree made of balloons). * We briefly discuss the wide variety of foods at restaurants in downtown SLO. * Despite this, Shawn only goes to a few places. This concerns him.

We talk about one that was trying to raise money to help prevent heat related diseases and death. (Since this episode was recorded, this one managed to get the amount of money that was requested). * We also mention another one that was to help a family have more children, and a third one that was to help a man who was living in his car with two dogs after a job fell through. * We talked a little about Kiva, which is another crowd-funded type thing. * We played a song by Efterklang called "Apples:" Listen to this song as part of our
