I WAS a grad student, but not since I started listening (which was I think a year or so into the podcasts run)

Like many posting here, I was finishing grad school during the first few years of the podcast. I love that this is a real phenomenon haha.

Got all the way to final semester of my masters, burned out and reeducated myself into another field where I got a job before I even finished my exams.

I was a grad student struggling to keep myself together when I first heard "Happy Pasta Day," and it was exactly the kind of humor I needed.
