Episode 47: Utter Failure & Hotel Steak

TOPIC: Resolving to skip the New Year's resolutions.

In the last episode of 2011, Merlin and Dan talk about fresh starts and modest changes rather than rehearsing for sucking. You don't need a calendar to tell you to change. Whether you want to give up nail biting, onanism, or drinking a gallon of vodka a day, you need a plan and a tolerance for failure. Plus, a little care never hurts.

How to do it? Keep it small, keep it time-limited, keep it action-oriented.

Happy New Year, jackals. We love you.
