Mind Hacks 
Thanks for the mention, Vaughan. I think this is the first time we’ve been called QUIXOTIC. Dictionary.com defines this as “Caught up in the romance of noble deeds and the pursuit of unreachable goals; foolishly impractical especially in the pursuit of ideals.”
You’ve got us pegged! Our unreachable goal is to complete a podcast where we actually know *any*thing about our topics. The foolishly impractical part is putting out something that anyone in their right mind would want to listen to. Since all your readers have Hacked Minds, we are sure they will feel right at home with us.
