Summary

#rtbth is back after a little bit of a hiatus due to....well...doctoral responsibilities 😩 And that is what Tunde and Herschel are discussing on the this episode. Tunde and Herschel recently completed their PhDs and reflect on the doctoral journey on the podcast. The trials and tribulations of graduate school, the oppressiveness of academia, the hedonic treadmill and other topics are discussed. (Listen to the end for a snippet about H5's first flight and cruise.) (Feel free hit up H4 for stats consulting - [email protected].)
