Episode 68 – Future Predictions Jan 02, 2018

Show notes

Welcome to 2018! And welcome to our 110% fact based prediction show for 2018. As you may expect from your two hosts, everything in this episode is 110% sure to become reality in the next twelve months. And since 110% is not actually possible, our predictions might also be just a little bit off? But we have 365 days to bask in the glory of our predictions before we, as usual, are shot back down to earth.
