Links and Show Notes:

In Follow-Up, listeners share updates on John's new smart home hub. Also, there's a new installation of Dog Justice Corner that finds some cheeky chappies getting ASBO'd by the bobbies.

This week's main topic is ceilings and floors. Can metaphorical limits help us make smarter decisions and mitigate risk given incomplete information? John thinks Merlin is way too optimistic about meatballs, and Merlin thinks gift cards might be hillbilly bitcoin.
