My holiday season listening turned a little political, which is not uncommon

Today's undernote covers just a few of the articles, podcasts and radio shows I encountered over the holiday break. A political skew this time, since I take in right wing conspiracies, Labour factions, the unpopularity of Keir Starmer.

There is a story current among the sleeping crew that I was once a fridge. To be clear, this is not true. Not really. On my release from virtual, I spent a decade as an apartment enclave in Northern California.
