Episode 10: Songs in the Key of E(val)

Brian

Sarah Farina of Broadleaf Consulting joins C and Brian this week to talk about music and how it connects with our work as evaluators. Which one of us is “a big nerd for classical music”? How lucky is C at Random Karaoke? What two songs have scarred Brian and C for life? And most importantly, does this podcast meet Canadian content requirements?

Apologies for some minor sound quality issues in this episode – to borrow from our episode 7 title, “Damn it, Jim, I’m an evaluator, not a sound engineer!”

  2. Love it! “You Can’t Always Get What you Want” was my second pick. Now, I’m wondering what methods The Clash used to determined that staying would increase their trouble by 100%. How do you quantify trouble? Inquiring evaluators want to know … 🙂
