So, pj, Hello.
Hello, Alex.
Pj how has this year been for you in terms of your mood?
I mean, you're laughing, it must have been great.
Uh, this year's sucked.
This year has been bleak and bad and winter feels bleaker and badder.
Yeah, winter's really freaking me out.
I'm actually very scared about what winter's gonna be like.
Um, how are you doing?
Well, it's funny you should ask.
So I read this article last, last week in the Times about these researchers who are trying to like,
measure and plot everybody's happiness on a day to day level.
Everyone in the world.
Yeah.
And they made this thing that they call the hedonometer.
Like hedonism?
Yes, exactly, hedonism.
Okay.
And I was like, okay, I want to talk to these guys because first of all,
happiness seems like a very slippery concept that I can't even begin to imagine how one would measure for.
