Poorhammer E75 - Challenging the Rule of 3

On this episode, Brad and Eric reflect on the Rule of 3’s positives and negatives, and discuss alternative rules that could possibly make list building more interesting while still not restraining creativity too much.  This will end in some amount of people completely missing the point and being extremely mad. Luckily they don’t read episode descriptions.
