Attribution

This repo was bootstrapped from kani3894/nate-jones-transcripts, which did the heavy lifting of archiving the first 431 episodes (May 2024 - Jan 2026). That repo hasn't been updated since January 2026, so we built this one to keep the archive current with automated daily sync and enrichment. Thank you to @kani3894 for building the original archive — without their work, this repo wouldn't exist.
